I set up the bird cam and took several pictures and find later that I had not properly focused on the feeder.

Blown opportunities.

Hopefully, they will return tomorrow, and the light will be good.

Those are still better than average, Trois!! Bet we could start a thread of blown opportunities and "almosts!"

Your yard looks gorgeous.

Thanks Murmur. I think it will cause me to be more careful.
Looking at my yard tells me I need to get rid of dead Banana leaves. I guess I got used to them that way.

I still have a ton of last year's stalks and leaves to get rid of, so I don't notice such things in someone else's yard. Do you and your dw both garden?

Yes. We are in the process of building a container Water Lily garden. I am taking a break from shoveling tons of sand. We need to get the growing started now and clean up after they are growing.
