Cara-Cara

Hello readers, if you haven’t guessed yet, this is bird week!  I always try to send out photos from the day I take them or at least within the week of.  This has really been a bird crazy week will have to make a note that for my birding friends this is the time to visit.  This was the completely unafraid Cara-Cara I told you about.  This bird nests along one of our busiest hiking/biking trails and sees people and pets all day long and apparently has become quite used to us.  I had Inca with me and we both stood almost right under him and it never seemed to bother him a bit.  My title says “screaming Cara-Cara but I think he was actually yawning, at least that’s what it looked like? 
 
Some fun news, I have another photo in this months issue of Sport Diver (June 2009).  It’s on the last page and is a photo of a giant coral head at Watamula with our best friend Michele as my model diver.  PLEASE show some support for this great magazine and of course yours truly and buy a copy.  This company along with our friend Tom has really been great about helping me get some exposure, you can also check out their site at www.sportdiver.com, thanks guys.
 
Ok now for the puppy update.  Good news, a guy stopped by last night and picked up one of our puppies!!  Which one, the one we have been calling Blackie.  I called him this morning and he said it was a rough night.  The puppy was really scared being that it was the first time away from her sisters.  The man stayed up till 1:00am trying to comfort her and I think she finally fell asleep.  I am going to call him again in a little bit and see how the day went, we will be going to visit her soon.  The other two are here at my feet playing and having a great time.  I just got home from an hour and a half bike ride and during I went to look for the mother and other two babies again but never found them, it just breaks my heart!!  Aimee went to dog class tonight leaving me here to baby-sit the kids.
 
Well, that’s my day in a nutshell, I trust you all are well?  Many thanks for all the wonderful notes, I love the words of encouragement!  See you tomorrow, Barry
