And the lead cow yesterday morning. I let my dogs out and she was keeping an eye on the Great Pyrenees. She ended up going back down the hill to the rest of the heard that were across the road. 15 minutes later they were all over my field.

Random shot during the mutt walk. It was so close I had to use the pano function. Now I have to convince my neighbor to let me in the barn to find the pot of gold!

Pretty Moth I found yesterday morning after a hard rain had quit. It was clinging to a light post trying to dry out.

Beautiful color and pattern. A little drab on the underside....but the top half is stunning IMO.

Should have gotten my digital camera out....instead of phone pics (don't do it justice).

Playing with my new drone. My house is just out of frame in the lower right corner.

It's a lower end DJI Mini 2 SE. I'm VERY impressed with how easy it is to fly and the quality of the camera, especially at the price I paid. Next experiment is to play with the video recording option. Suspect I'm going to need a bigger SD card for that...

I saw a nice little fox this morning coming across the field. He was stalking some critter and got it! I have a picture of him with something dark hanging from his mouth ... maybe a vole or something. I need to upgrade my phone which is now seven or eight years old but I really hate doing that. :sneaky:

That's a lovely scene. Are there any privacy concerns flying a drone over other people's property? Does your state or county have any regulations regarding the flying of drones? I'm genuinely curious and not trying to be funny.

In the US, drones are regulated at the federal level by the FAA. (You've probably started a firestorm here, the subject is pretty hot :))

Here is information as well as links to answer your questions.

Basically a drone is like any other aircraft and you can fly most anywhere, there are rules about flying over people for safety reasons. Many parks have rules about drones and many only control take off and landing within a park. It is a big subject, more than should be discussed here, just follow the FAA website and take the rather simple course.

Frankly, I don't know, and seeing as I have no plans to randomly fly around, I'm not particularly worried about it.

The drone was over my property, directly above my house at an altitude of 75-100 feet (I didn't look at the telemetry).

The only way I'd intentionally fly over someone else's property is at their request. I've done that once to get some pictures of roof damage for a neighbor.

This jumped out of a tree, right past my ear. Happened too fast to even flinch. Smooth Green Snake, I think.

Decided I wasn't getting any younger so if I didn't buy another motorcycle one of these days I might not have the opportunity. Well... picked up a new Nightster Special for cruising the country roads this summer. It "sleeps" beside the B2601.

I've never been into motorcycles but it sure does look nice. :) Did you pick up that shiny trailer too so that you can haul the bike around?

Thank you for the compliment on the cycle. As to the trailer, in the fall of 2021 we traded the BX2230 in on a B2601 and needed a bigger trailer to accommodate the longer tractor. Yep, it might be called on to haul the Harley if I don't keep the rubber side down!!!
