Hi, I'm Andrea, and I'm interested in creatures and plants both wild and tamed, and people of all sorts. I only use a compact digital camera ,as I love being able to get it into a back pocket, and not have to cart heavy kit about. I carry a Panasonic Lumix TZ series, binoculars and a hand lens almost everywhere.Most of my outings are with the dogs so I only use point and shoot.
I am getting the hang of Photoshop, thanks to some very kind folk on RR!
I have a wildlife garden in Bournemouth, Dorset, in the UK, and spend a lot of time there . I retired from teaching art to teenagers a while ago.
I'm now getting some good results with my digi compacts; it took me a while to make the switch from my old film camera, an 1960 ish Pentax Spotmatic, but the mistakes are much cheaper!
I have 4 lodgers, 3 dogs and a parrot who, as at 2017, I have had 40 years.
I has so far had 19 dogs, mostly rescues.

A fine capture of the brave boy, must smile because of the ice on the water 😊

As someone with only one kidney myself, I can empathize. He's a handsome boy...

Superb capture Andrea. God bless.

Very sorry to hear of his health issues as well !
Now that's some nasty trick Mother Nature played on a thirsty fellow.
He looks so darned cute sniffing the ice in both photos.
Thanks for sharing Andrea.

He is still looking so healthy Andrea. Your brood feels like my own - I got to know then so well here on RR. I'm more worried that he would slip off and fall in that frozen pond!

Fritz is looking well. His coat is a beautiful colour.

I can't believe how much greenery you have in the winter...Chicago is like the arctic right now...Both shots are very appealing, the flicker has more light, this has more deep darks. And I love Fritz's posture here, and how---in both shots---his coloration is such strong contrast to all these greens, browns, grays, deep blues, etc. Full size, this is most inviting; and he must be freaked as hell that he can't get anything out of that water. I love both these shots. They drew me in from the first time you posted them.
