Flying Ants or Swarming Termites - 04/20/10 09:19 PM
I woke the other day to what looked like snow in my backyard in Virginia Beach.  On closer inspection it was a swarm of flying insects from the yard next door.  I was in a hurry and took a couple of pictures but now realize I should have captured a few to see what they were.  From a distance you can't tell the difference but I guess up close you can inspect the wings and the bodies.  I know the difference now but still don't know what these insects were.  By the way, ants have three part to their body (termites … (7 comments)

King of The Backyard Feeder in Virginia Beach - 04/20/10 09:00 PM
I have a new king of the backyard birdfeeder.  Last year it was a hawk of some kind.  He could eat the birds.  This raven just likes to sit on top of the feeder and not let anyone else eat.  It is just crazy.

A Monument To Cats In Virginia Beach - 04/17/10 10:37 AM
I found this guy while showing houses in Virginia Beach last week.  Of course I took it with my Droid.  I was using the DROID to navigate and took the picture with the navigation still on.  As an added bonus, the picture has the address, date and time the picture was taken as part of the data file.  How neat is that.

It Is Snowing in Virginia Beach - 04/04/10 02:40 PM
I went out this morning to enjoy the fresh air in Virginia Beach and it was snowing at about 60 degrees.  You see the Bradford Pear trees are in full bloom and they are very pretty unless your car is under them.  It was snowing little Bradford Pear petals everywhere down our street in Glenwood.

iPhone is a recording studio - 04/01/10 04:04 PM
I was reading the other day about a man who made an album almost entirely on his iPhone.  The report said entirely but because the iPhone CANNOT multitask he had to overdub on another workstation.  It actually sounds pretty good.  You can go to www.freematik.com and check it out.   
Tom Freeman is a sound engineer and is the one who made the album.  He used different applications such as iDrum, Beatmaker and Flare.  I am sure he will not be the last.

DROID Does Tulips - 04/01/10 03:47 PM
I took a picture of a tulip growing in my garden with my Driod and my Panasonic DMC FZ 18.  They are as close to the same shot as I could get.  Both on auto.  Which do you think is which.  The DROID is a 5 megapixel camera while the Panasonic is an 8.
