UNTALENTED: Birds on Wires for Feathered Friday
I think when @keithboone had the idea for Feathered Friday, he wanted to see some good photos of birds with interesting background information about them. If you go to Keith's post to call for entries, you can see excellent bird photos; appropriately described.
This post will win the boobie prize for sure. And I don't mean the blue-footed boobie.
I decided to go for themes for this Friday event. Have a lot of old bird photos from the days when I thought I would be a better photographer than I am. I was taking an online photography course, and "birds" was one of the subjects suggested so I have thousands of them. I may not be good, but I am prolific.
Now I have limited wifi, and all these old photos, so I am making do.
This week it's all about birds on wires overhead. Lucky for me, @surpassinggoogle has the untalented tag in his ulogs dapp. I feel right at home here.
The first photo is the best of the bunch, and I know the birds are mourning doves. I can hear them now. They do have a very mournful sound. These birds were very prevalent in Coronado California until the crows arrived a few years ago to chase all the other birds off.
This guy was on a wire screaming for hours one day at a place I lived in San Diego. You can just see a feather sticking off the crown of his head. What type of bird he is - I have no idea.
Another Coronado bird nicely set off by the utilities.
This one was at the back of my apartment building in Coronado and has a distinctive silhouette.
One bird is getting ready to follow his friend flying away.
Terrible birds, one overexposed, one a blob - good moon shot though (for me).
Most of these photos can be found at my Behance Site when I was collecting work at one point. It's a good place for me to look when I want to see failed projects from the past.

Situation Critical – My rent and wifi are not paid and now are both overdue
UPDATE: I am so happy and relieved to tell you that:
- my rent and a wifi top up have been paid.
- the money sent to my US paypal account has arrived, through Thailand to Malaysia!
A bigger post describing current events will be posted soon, but I want to let anyone checking on me know that the first part of the situation is solved and that at least I will not be cut off from the world without a roof over my head.
And I can afford to go to Singapore for my required visa trip. Can you go to Singapore for three days and spend a total of $75 USD? Watch me!
I am so grateful to you all.
