We saw this Ring-necked Pheasant Thursday afternoon, hanging out at the entrance to DeKorte Park. Photographed him from a vehicle so as not to flush him.

We saw the Red-necked Grebe on Thursday morning — it was once again providing passersby insanely wonderful views.

West Hudson Park itself is a nice little oasis iotself — thought we'd provide a photo so you get a feel for the place.

No telling how much longer the grebe will be there, so if you get the chance…

To get to park, click  here and then enter where you are coming from. Park in lot on left, and walk under bridge to pond where the grebe has been seen.

We have not had any new submissions from photographers, so this is just a head's up that next Monday's "Photography Showcase" is a bit amateurish compared to the excellent photography we have had thus far.

We apologize in advance, and hope no one's feelings will be hurt.
