Wishes splashed?

Today is Theme Day on City Daily Photo blogs. The theme for the first day of April is "water." This photo is from the fountain in the local mall, Lakeside Shopping Center. The question I have is, how many of those pennies and nickels and dime actually represent a wish come true?

They are among us

They are among us, mingling with the population. These Star Wars Storm Troopers are occasionally spotted in their full gear at Mardi Gras parades and similar gatherings. Then they mingle back in -- becoming just you next door neighbor.

I thought I migh kill two stones with one bird on this post. 1) getting in my monthly Mardi Gras picure 2) reinforcing you fear of those Storm Troopers among us :-))))

Two tall

I just happened to look up, standing in between these two towers. It kind of twisted my sense of direction. This is from the top of the parking garage at my office in downtown New Orleans. They are kind of like artificial mountains, with extraordinary vantage points.

--steve buser

Suspended animation

This strange creature is at the Aquarium of the Americas in downtown New Orleans. One of these days, I am going to remember to write down identification stuff. I thought it might be a Man of War, but I can't find anything like it on the internet. His image is a little misshapen -- caused by the curvature of the glass of the tank he is in. And the light might distort his color somewhat. Anyway, he captured my attention as he slow floated around -- the bell at his top keeping him near the surface of the water.

--steve buser

American Coots

These American Coots were another group of ducks by the Audubon Park rookery in New Orleans when I was out shooting there a couple weeks ago. I hadn't seen many of these before. Their striking white bills are hard to miss. The group was being rather benign and staying close together with about a half dozen more of their kind -- the group is known as a cover of Coots or a raft of Coots (I found this out from Wikipedia ). They were so dark against the reflecting water that I had to light up the picture considerably to get their red eyes to show (you may need to click on the picture and enlarge it to see that.)

Duck snoop

This young wood duck with his breeding plumage( iridescent green head, sharp white markings, deep red chest, golden sides) was strutting his stuff around Audubon Park in New Orleans a couple weeks ago -- not that he would let me get close enough for a full frame shot or anything. He kept his distance pretty well. But I got behind a tree and waited then peeked around and caught this shot. Notice the long green and purple crest looks almost like pony tail.


--steve buser

Light fight

I just had to do this. Couldn't resist. It's just not in me. These two lamps in the French Quarter of New Orleans seemed to be just staring at me as I came walking down the side walk. Look at them -- they look the same, but their light source is as different as it can be. One is as ancient as they comes. The other the most modern.

Then it occurred to me that that sign was comment on the time. I'll let you fill in the words

Wooden frame

We were riding the streetcar down St. Charles Avenue with my son and his wife a couple weeks ago, and I decided to shoot some of the mansion we passed by. This one caught my eye as we clanged past, but it wasn't till I got home and looked at the shots that I noticed the interesting play of the trees-- still trying to come back to their former glory from being windswept by Hurricane Katrina, they give seem to me to give a framing effect that brings out the stateliness of the the mansion.

Winner take all

Where was the first World Championship Heavyweight prize fight in the United States held? If you said Kenner, you win. If you said Rivertown in Kenner, you win the championship. The plaque at the site reads "In the predawn hours of May 10, 1870, a crowd of about 1,000 people left the New Orleans Jackson Street Railroad Station for Kennerville. There, in a makeshift ring in the back of William Butler Kenner's old sugar house, about 100 yards from the Mississippi River, Jed Mace of Beestown, Norwich, England beat Tom Allen of Birmingham, England in 10 rounds. The prize for the bare knuckle event was $2,500, winner tak all."

Wasn't the location you were expecting?

Crabs anyone?

Boiled crabs anyone? This is a true New Orleans meal. The crabs are boiled in a large pot with tons of seasoning -- enough to make you lips burn when you have been eating them for a while. It's a lot of work to peel the crabs and get all the crabmeat out, but it is well worth it. The typical New Orleans tradition is to spread newspaper over a table outside and everyone gathers around and digs in. The spices make you body kick in all the endorphins so that you feel pretty good afterwards.

This was part of the treat last night at my in-laws' (Dan and Winnie Haydell) house in Mandeville -- a Easter family get together. (The other half was crawfish.) Good food, good family fun.

Sprung

Though others are snow in, in New Orleans, Spring has definitely sprung. These blossoms were along the street in Kenner's Rivertown --an area of museums, shops and just plain fun. The feel of spring was in the air Saturday in this suburb just upriver from New Orleans. The temper was 70 degrees with a light breeze.

Sea soarer, lot lover

Soar. Your whole body was made to do this. From the lightness of your feathers to your nearly weightless bones. Tuck in your feet and cut your drag. Breath deeply, the air will run completely through you -- even in your bones. Trim your wings. The wind wants to lift you. You can play with it. Let it fill your feathers and push you up. You can tuck you head down at any time. There's a special tie between you and the wind. Brothers. Sisters. Soar mates.

This fellow is one of a flock of seagulls that hangs out at a shopping center parking lot nearby. I was sitting in the car one day and just decided to pull out the camera. They are hard to catch because they are so leary. But from the shelter of my car window I was able to sneak a couple interesting shots.

Rooted in history

This old Live Oak tree in City Park in New Orleans lays out its wrinkles and age spots -- it's a form of character that seems to invite young kids to climb on. I'm supposing that it is over 100 years old.-- meaning it has seen a lot of the history of New Orleans pass in front of it. Probably most of the leaders in this community climbed on it as children or on one of its neighbors.

--steve buser

Work detail

Imagine the work that went into these gates in Jackson Square in New Orleans. Some iron worker probably spent weeks to get all the details into these massive posts. Jackson Square is in the heart of the French Quarter just in front of St. Louis Cathedral. It's a favorite spot for tourists and locals alike. I doubt few pay much attention to the gates and fence. But some handyman's work lives on.

Nothing to fear

Miss "I-know-no-fears" gets ready for a head first slide down at Audubon Park in New Orleans. Our granddaughter Sophie, here, prepared for a kamikaze zoom, has a kind of damn-the-torpedos thing about slides. She lights up with a big smile and a noticeable "wheeeee" as she goes sailing into PawPaws safe hands.

Other than that character "flaw", she is a perfect young lady -- always carrying her baby.

--steve buser

Raw pleasure

Raw oyster anyone? Dunk it in some cocktail sauce -- ketchup, horseradish sauce, some Tobasco and maybe a squeeze of lemon -- and you're ready for some raw pleasure. It's a favorite in New Orleans. You will pay from $6 to $12 for a dozen of these guys at many restaurants.

The old adage that "oyster make you love longer" may have been debunked, but you'd have hard time getting people around here to believe this delicacy doesn't have something magical about it.

The oysters seem to be very juicy and large this year -- good news for the purist who eat them with no cocktail sauce -- perhaps just a little lemon juice.

Another old saying says that when things are going your way, "the world is your oyster."

Cabbage coming

From the Irish Channel St. Patrick's Day Parade this weekend comes this shot. The cabbage is coming down, you had better be ready to catch it. They also threw huge carrots, potatoes, bananas, bell peppers and more. Go home and cook all that up and your sure to have the luck of a leprechaun. The New Orleans parade is a favorite every years -- it takes a couple hours to pass by the our spot on St. Charles. If you are hardy enough, after it passes, you can walk six blocks to Magazine Street and catch it again.

Not me.

--steve buser

Luck of the Irish

This has to be the grand prize of any St. Patrick's Day Parade. One of the marching Irish apparently just couldn't hold up his stick of flowers any more and handed it over to my niece Paige. My wife, Linda (left), revels in the good fortune. The New Orleans tradition, the Irish Channel St. Patrick's Day parade rolled down St. Charles Avenue yesterday. The temperatures were in the high 80's -- a perfect Louisiana day for catching beads, trinkets and cabbage.

Beignet bandit

If you've never had a beignet in New Orleans, they are what's not left on the plate. Essentially a square donut covered with a generous dusting of powdered sugar, they are a favorite of all New Orleanians -- everybody from Louisiana even. Oh, heck, let's make that the world.

Here, my grandson Sullivan, the pile of beignets vanished, gets in every last lick of the powdered sugar. This is at the Cafe Du Monde at the Lakeside Mall.

Stepping out

The grandkids were in town this weekend. Here, grandson Sullivan takes a deep breath before stepping out in his imagination over a huge chasm. The curvey bars are a favorite at the Audubon Park playground in New Orleans.

Creeping critter

One of the little critters in Audubon Park that will come close, but not to near to you. They're looking to see if you have any food to throw out. They are amazingly cautious. The New Orleans Park lies next to the Mississippi River and is also home to the zoo.

Sunbathing buddies

How brave are you?

I don't care if I have a hard shell on my back, there are still some things I just won't share a log with. Alligators are at the top of that list.

I'm sure the alligator on the right just ate. In fact, he is probably baking his meal -- since they are cold blooded they love to climb on rocks and logs and other sun-baked places to heat up the meal in their stomach. Nonetheless, I think I would be at least the 4th or 5th turtle from him. That way, all I would have to do is out-swim the other turtles (of whom I would have a head start) and not have to worry about out-swimming the gator.

The scene is the bayou in Audubon Park, in New Orleans

Getting ready for nest eggs

A Great White Egret fixes up his?/her? nest (both participate in the building) at the Audubon Park rookery in New Orleans. The rookery is a island in the bayou which makes a loop through the park. On the inner shore is a golf course. On the outer shore is a jogging path that runs around the park and an excellent observation bank for people and photographers to sit or stand (I am not implying, note you, that photographers and people do not overlap).

Herons with white feathers are generally called egrets. Note the long s-shaped neck and the strong yellow bill (orangish in breeding season) made for stabbing prey. The long filamentous plumes on the falling down the side of the bird are breeding plumage called aigrettes. Also the green along the sides of the eye (lores) are a breeding sign for both males and females. The nests go to nearly the tops of the trees.


-- steve buser

Stick-built home

It's spring time and that means nesting season -- building a home one twig at a time. This Great Egret brings in a prize for her tree-top abode where the new ones will get heir first glimpse of the world. The shot is at the Audubon Park rookery -- an island in the bayou of the park just across from Tulane and Loyola Universities in New Orleans. I was amazed to see the cluster of fire power on the shore when I took this shot -- professional nature photographers with lenses up to about 1000mm maybe more. It's a favorite and easy-to-get-to place for nature photography right in the heart of the Big Easy.

Doves Mourning

I wish our adventure with the Mourning Dove and her two newborn doves had a happy ending, but I must report otherwise. When I got home from work this is what I found -- the mother sitting on the fence post, standing sentinel to a empty nest. The father sitting behind her could just watch and feel her pain. Evey once in a while she would fly down to the ground below the nest and sit on a board and look around slowly -- searching, hoping that somehow they had just fallen.

What had happened? There are few clues. Had the mother left the nest to find food? Not likely -- that is the father's job. Some animal of prey must have scared the mother from her maternal nest. Maybe it was a pair like the two blue birds that had come looking the day before -- though I don't suspect them. One of a pair might have distracted her while the other did the deed It's hard to imagine she would have given up without a fight.

Nature is beautiful, but often cruel.

Here she sits and mourns. In the morning she had flown away. There is a Mourning Dove on the power line by the street. Perhaps she has just expanded her search.

The one thing that is sure-- she won't return to this nest. She now knows it is not safe. She'll find another spot for her next brood.

--steve buser

Angry night, morning has broken

The night sky above New Orleans was filled with streaks of lightning. The thunder shook the windows. The rain poured down in a hissing sound. The wind shook the trees violently. Then it was over.

In morning we woke up and snuck up quickly to the window to see how the new family in the tree could have possibly made it.

There she was -- Mourning Dove with one of her newborn, how do you say it ? Dovelets? The baby made be ugly, but just two days into his new life, he has a story to tell his grandchildren. A story about how angry the sky can be and how the best mother in the world sheltered it him through it all. Sitting still over him. Calm in the fury.

Foggy ferry

The Algiers ferry glides into the Canal Boulevard ferry landing through the shroud of fog. Cool mornings always make the Mississippi River in New Orleans a fun place to shot photos.

--steve buser

New baby doves

The Mourning Dove that has been nesting outside our window had her babies last night -- it looks like two little ones. They finally poked their head out about 5:30 pm and mommy started feed them shortly after that. It's exciting to have a new family in the neighborhood. They look amazingly large. No wonder mom took so long to hatch them.

A shot of mom just before the babies came out is on my other blog, PixelEyed.

Theme day -- New Orleans street art

Today is theme day on the City Daily Photo blogs. The Theme is grafitti/street art. More than 144 different blogs are participating.

Above is a unique "street art" in New Orleans that is rapidly disappearing as street signs are replaced. Katrina blew thousands of street signs away making it hard to find your way around. So residents started taking it upon themselves to get guide signs up. Some of the signs were just painted on cardboard. Others were more creative and more colorful. This is a good example.
