Thanks for such Giving Hosts
Thanksgiving Day down here in Raleigh was much kinder weather-wise than back in the clouds of western Pennsylvania. I started out with a brisk walk with Brutus and came upon a wetlands that proved a bit interesting. We watched a blue heron for some time and snapped a few shots until Brutus spooked it.
