A Juvenile Osprey at Lido Beach
Wednesday, September 6, 2023,
This is a juvenile Osprey stretching his wings and striking poses. I came across this youngster at the Lido Beach Passive Nature Area in Lido Beach.
He, or she, is only newly fledged, and is quite new to this whole flying thing. Also, being a youngster, it needs to work on looking “cool”. We’ve all been there. This young one is just working on its “moves”. Again, we’ve all been there. How many of you remember Jordache jeans? How many of you are cringing at that memory? 🙂 I, myself, am embarrassed that I remembered how to spell Jordache.

An Oystercatcher in the Surf
Friday, September 8, 2023,
This is a female Oystercatcher strolling near the surf line near Nickerson Beach. I couldn’t decide how to crop this photograph, 3×5 or 5×7, so I’m posting both of them. I think both are pretty good. JK

A Blue Dasher With a Closeup
Wednesday, September 6, 2023,
This is a Blue Dasher I found at Frank Melville Memorial Park in Setauket. Both of these pictures are just two different crops of the same photograph. I just wanted to show some of the finer detail in this guy’s face and thorax. Be sure to click on each pic for a better view. Pretty cool, isn’t it? JK
