Social distancing day 507, went on a quick promenade to the wetlands.
It was a nice morning (maybe mid-70sF in the shade) for a #swampwalk , even better with my lovely cohort @maximillian_deersteak.
#bogsafari critter count was low on the visual end. I had a little talk with the little hound dog / beagle pooch that lives at the end of the street.
Audibly, we heard osprey chirp, toads e-string pluck, frogs, cicadas, and the occasional mosquito buzz.
Max found a few interesting oyster mushrooms and discarded bottles along the way.

Is it just me, or does the wizard Shazam look like Nicolas Cage here?

It all started when…
Max Fleischer was working as the Art Editor for Popular Science Magazine when, in 1915, he filed a patent application for a contraption he called the Rotoscope. Convinced that he could improve the jerky, jumping quality of early animated films, Max set out to create a mechanism by which animators could use live action film as a guide for their drawings, giving animated characters more fluid, life-like movement.
With the Rotoscope built and Dave, Max’s younger brother, playing the featured role of the clown… & after a year of painstaking work, a one minute film would change animation forever.
Years later, Fleischer would rotoscope Cab Calloway and more magic was created than we can comprehend. St. James Infirmary Blues. Old Man of the Mountain. Minnie the Moocher. and more!

Testing the squirrel picnic cam, coming soonish. Noticed the motion auto record got a scofflaw doing a poor job of stopping at a 4-way, near a school bus stop.
Maybe I’ll put another camera in a better location to keep track of cars blowing through there. Or not. Refer to track 4-legged critters and birds.
