Bad little dude, circa 1955

Posted By Ron Streetenberger
My first decent car, a 1933 Ford five window with rumble seat. Robin egg blue with red and white naugahide upholstery. Engine had Offy heads, Edelbrock intake manifold, mild cam, and twin Stromberg carbs. Sure wish I still had it.

Cedar Waxwings

Posted By Ron Streetenberger
These are one of my favorite birds. This flock was enjoying a pool of rainwater in the hollow of the stump.

WHICH GLOBAL WARMING?

Posted By Ron Streetenberger
Are we talking about the global warming of 65 million years ago, when there were no ice caps on the planet? Maybe the discussion is about the status of the earth 12,000 years ago when the ice sheet melted so rapidly that it created the Grand Canyon in a few months? Oh, sorry, that was the same event that flash froze the Wooly Mammoths in their tracks in Siberia. Surely we aren't talking of the record snows of the upper midwest this year, are we?

Ford Pantera.

I hope that this qualifies as "bad to the bone".

Goldfinch

These birds are nearing completion of putting on their summer plumage and heading north.

Mustang GT Premium.

Posted By Ron Streetenberger
I bought this a few days ago. It's a 2006 with 4031 miles on it when I purchased it. This thing was done right: Chip Foose style paint, Rousch spoiler, Eihart spring kit, custom 3" exhaust system, Bullitt wheels, and a few other goodies. Love at first sight.

Myrtle Warbler

Posted By Ron Streetenberger
Cloudy day, slow shutter, taken through window glass. This was the best of about fifteen images but since these are rare sightings in my yard, I'll take it. They are really active during migration.

This one appears to have it's full summer plumage.

Possum

Posted By Ron Streetenberger
This unfortunate Possum was blown out of a tree in my yard yesterday. It appears that it suffered scrapes on the left side of it's head, probably from hitting a limb on its way to the ground. Not often does one get the opportunity to photograph a Possum during the day. Been a bit breezy here the past few days.
