This was the next day and the male was on a ceiling fan on the deck. I really enjoy the red in the male.
The female also was on the same fan in a different position. They are neat birds.
Be sure to visit the web site to see a lot of neat critters.
The Sun is working hard to shine.
It does make for some interesting views.
Here is another day with a red sky sunrise. We had snow that night.
The ducks are all gathered in a line on the lake. You can click on the photos to get a closer look. You can see where someone has crossed the lake in the foreground.
This was a neat house across the lake that I brought in close.
I will be traveling until the weekend so if I don't visit that is the reason. 
The city finally opened one lane after several weeks. this has caused much congestion in the area. There was a sewage line damaged and the crane is being used to assist repairs.
This is a view from the side showing the cement structure over the river and one of the train tracks.
You can see the damage to the cars from the derailment. The cars were carrying coal and it also had to be cleaned-up. You can click on the photos to get a better view.

There were several colors of this flower and the bees were enjoying them all.
These bees were having a ball jumping from flower to flower and didn't mind me getting 
I had an accident yesterday and was unable to get in and visit because of being in the emergency room with a split lip. Thirteen stitches later I'm back together and looking sad.
I like flying birds so I spent some time trying to capture them against the gray sky.
I enjoy any flying capture but find it hard to do.
It was fun trying and these are my best shots.
I finally said goodbye as they flew away.
I do hope you enjoyed the show and will visit some of the other critters Misty has to offer on her Meme.
It was 1:00 PM and the clouds had overtaken the Sun.
I was able to get a couple of angles on the Sun.

I would like to pass this on to:
I do hope Darla, Salty, Willard and Warren will play.
This is a view from the river of the bridge from river level. You can see it is a high level bridge.
This is a view from under the bridge showing the structure of the bridge and the graffiti that people have left on the span.
You can go around the world by visiting the sites shared on My World.
I love this little purple flower and the Spring show they put on.
They will fight their way through snow and also will force there way around a large garden stone to show their beauty.
Go to my link to see some other great flower sites.
I parked the car and got as close as I could to them.
I did get one fair shot in the tree.
I had captured this one in the Fall in amongst the tree branches.
Check out Michele's American Crows for a real photography treat. She got fluffy crows.
Here is who I will tag.
There was this small blue patch with the sun fighting to get out. The old train station, Pufferbelly Restaurant, is in relief in the shot.
The lamp posts always make a good sky foreground.
You can see a portion of the Cuyahoga River in this photo.
I added this one to show how much brighter it looked if you used the blue section of the sky. That wasn't the true sky I was seeing.
There will be brighter skies through the world but I feel my skies show the time of the year in North East Ohio. It has been a tough Winter so far.
We were dressed for the occasion and my wife's eyes after the operation were almost healed.
The Tangier's was decked out in Christmas regalia.
The buffet was loaded and you had to get enough to eat.
The band show was a jazz band called Charisma with some neat music. They had both a man and women lead singer so could do a lot of jazz tunes. The band leader on keyboard was once with The Commodores.
It was a fun time watching all the action and the different couples. New memories made and cherished.
