I took these recently while at a trip to the Portland Zoo participating in the World Wide Photowalk. There will be others from the photowalk/zoo to follow.
William at a small lake throwing a couple handfulls of rocks into the lake. He had fun and made some great splashes! I like this image because of the rock pattern in an arc in front of him.
Local kids jump off of this bridge every summer for the thrill and to cool off. No worries, more than 40 feet deep here and no bad things to go bump on. The climb back up is rough so usually you will see a pair of shoes follow the jumper in. :-)
In a small fishing pond by the lake there were many types of these flying fellows. They are fairly shy but with a little patience (and some cropping) I have these......
We went camping at Sunnyside county park near Sweet Home, Oregon. The boat went back in the water after a 3 year dry spell. William wnet on the boat as a baby and did not remember being on it before. Now he knows what it is in the garage and cried wildly when we left, never wanting to go home. Cyndy caught a nice trout and we all had fun!
