August 5, 2011 It is one of the most interesting visits I have made this summer. I attended the Renaissance Fest at Hawk Creek in East Aurora. It's kind of amazing that there are places so close to home that I haven't been to.Given the state of things these days, it is good to know that you don't have to drive a long way to enjoy cool things and whats more, great family friendly things.
August 4, 2011 Great news for those of us that hunt in Wyoming and Chautauqua County. According to the NYS Rifle and Pistol association's website and facebook page, the bill has passed allowing for the use of rifles during the upcoming fall big game gun season in Wyoming and Chautauqua Counties!
August 4, 2011 I'm telling ya. It has been a great summer for getting pictures of wildlife in Western New York. I had a chance to capture these birds on a light on a garage in Wyoming County. It is a mother Barn Swallow feeding her chicks at dinner time. I did the best I could to capture these photos but in order to give them their proper privacy, I could only get so close.
August 3, 2011 I had to share this photo! This is why I try to keep a camera handy at all times. This is a family of skunks that crossed the road in front of me the other day. They sure are cute but I doubt I would want to get any closer. Thank goodness for a good zoom lens!
