		<description><![CDATA[&#8230; Bird! While kayaking yesterday morning, I happened across a Gray Catbird (Dumetella carolinensis) sitting atop one of the trees along the bank. As I slowly paddled closer, he was very cooperative and continued to serenade me. Here are a few images I captured of this beautiful bird: &#160; As can be seen in one [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While photographing the other day, I ran upon this fishing lure in a treetop. Obviously, that fish got away! &#160; It is amazing how many lures and assorted fishing gear I find in shrubs and trees, while kayaking.

Things there were very slow, however, so I decided to check out a nearby lake.
