Last weekend of winter here.
The bigger the better. Watch out for the leg trip when he's passing.
Big stick.....what ducks?

Great shots Chris. I miss my dog Sammy terribly. He liked big sticks and water too. Your shots make me smile. Happy spring and summer.
Thanks Aaron, my dogs won't leave me alone until they get their weekly trip to the beach. Labs go figure.
That looks like some pretty good weather for the tail end of a winter! 
Chris does New Zealand not use the equinox's to mark the changes of season? My browser home page tells me 24 days, 22 hours, 56 minutes & 31 seconds of summer left.

No we run with the start of the month not the equinox. Spring: September - November, Summer: December - February etc
Our weather has already moved to spring like weather. It's winter here and this morning at 5:30am we are 11'C / 51'F. Day time temps are currently mid to high teens 'C
I believe it is the meteorologist who decided on the start of the month per season, as it is constant and our weather has already changed by the time of the equinox's. Of coarse there are a few people who prefer to view it as the equinox's which is 23rd September this year.
Thanks Chris, i had no idea. The things you learn around here!

The equinox denotes the longest day and the shortest day of the year, but for seasons, the weather denotes that. Here in PA, winter is in November until March. Similar to your winter in Canada being.... August 20th through August 15th
The equinox's are the days where day and night are closest to being equal, around Sept. 23rd & March 20th.
Solstices are in December and June, the shortest day and the longest day of the year.

And yet, no construction cones! Should have gone west today instead of east!
Whoops, yea, got those mixed up (just like I always mix up yea and yeah
)
Not a great clear shot, but I think the action was good. We call him George.
I have a 3 pack of Vivitar clip on mobile phone lenses from Wally - world (about $7)
This is the Macro lens

That's pretty decent. I always wondered about those clip on things.
I never knew this creek was 20 minutes from my house. The water was crystal clear and the cypress tress were beautiful.
Terrific shots!
Nice shot Aaron. I can see you chilling out there a bit in the future.
I was not going to run the hounds today but as the little woman asked me to drop something off for her I did while out.
They don't seem to mind the cold crap weather.
The water is cold and a bit rough but that stick must be returned.
