I tried , but gave up after a few snaps because I could not catch the wings of the hummingbirds..
It has really been sometimes a Sisyphean challenge.
I'm going through the pics now ... why are those little birds moving their wings so fast and at the wrong time

These are very nice pictures, Walter - as always!
I really like the turquoise shirt dys is wearing.

Thanks, but still ... (at least you can see traces of this bird was eating ...)

Good afternoon, on this my 62nd birthday, by the way. Tomorrow I will officially be counted as retired.
Thank yall with cameras for posting the pictures here. Much appreciated.
I am wondering if there is a way I could select a half dozen or so of them and have them sent to my computer at the shop if I provided the email address. Some of my employees are curious as to why I would have gone all the way to Alburquerque to meet a bunch of quirky people.
The pics would not be printed or disseminated.

Tall, skinny guy. Hails from the East. Cumbersome and awkward, but tolerable.

Might have a scar in the shape of a cornet on the left side of his neck, but I have not received confirmation on that.

Happy birthday, johnboy!
These dancers from Santa Fe ... ... well, I didn't engage them, but looked for the photo against strict rotation :wink:
(If you ask me, you can get any photo.)

Sure, they did. But it was just dys' and my age ... (we arrived later, since we took a much longer but very scenic route to go there)

Indeed, as if it was known to be a pre-birthday party: johnboy in the center of a flurry of flashbulbs

37 + 38 = 75
that should be just right for both walter and dys(individually , of course !)
