Good to know. I broke my own rule and didn't wait 24 hours before updating.

Everything is showing up using the web browser version on Opera but I can't post from there. 🙄

I'm more proud of the bird bath. A ceramic sink I rescued from an orchard filled with cobble stones I got from somewhere.

Thanks Jason. I was going to crop it square but decided to leave space for the virtual tail.

Thanks Jason. Something different for the #MixedPairs theme.

Nice to know you can see it because after the app update all my contents and posts have disappeared. I'm running blind at the moment as it's also broken several of the feeds I use.

Thank you.

I'm guessing it's something to do with today's update as my content is gone now.

I can still see your content.

Thanks Rob. I thought it was a different take on the theme.

Thanks, it's been a winter for minimalist images.

Plant remains sticking out of snow on the #BrucePeninsula, Ontario.

Part of my #GettingBackToBasics project made with a manual focus, single coated telephoto from the 1970s.

It was the only colour film stock that I used for years as a lot of editors preferred it until Velvia arrived.

Thank you. I always think that the grebe is looking around as if lost in a sea of gulls.

Yes, I've noticed that. Buying from Japan usually results in having to pay customs/brokerage fees in Canada. Maybe they have increased their prices to cover paying the fees.

Thank you. Part of a four month project that started with the adults inspecting the nest box and ended after the last youngster left the box.

It can't decide if spring has arrived or not here flipping between winter weather and spring weather every few days.

I like quiche but it's not something that's eaten in Ontario or Saskatchewan.

It's a couple of degrees above freezing here this morning.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #MixedPairs and a different take on the theme. A solitary Great Crested Grebe amongst hundreds of Black-headed Gulls.

Photographed in south #Cheshire, England in the early 1990s on #Kodachrome.
