I ran an errand yesterday; and of course, I grabbed my camera bag on the way out the door.

You know…..just in case.

I knew enroute, there was no time to stop and spend some leisure time with nature.

But there’s ALWAYS time for a quick one-on-one moment along the way.

White-tailed Deer

That handsome buck was in the same spot thirty minutes later when I passed back by!

Tundra Swan (my first sighting of the season)

.

Through a clump of trees, I spotted the big whiteness of the Tundra Swan on a farm pond where Canada Geese were also hanging.  I turned around to investigate further and was delighted to see my first this season.

And this one’s here a bit early!  Our Tundra Swans normally arrive starting mid to end of November; several thousand will spend their winter here.

Do you also carry your camera everywhere you go?  For that ‘just in case’ moment?
