Full pink moon

Or part thereof. Hard to find a good shot through the trees, and yes it is a moving target when seen through the zoom. Ruth P thought I’d sent the second picture before. No, it is a new one, however admittedly similar to what I’ve got often in the past when trying to take a picture of the moon.

American Robin

Can’t believe I initially labelled this a bluebird. That must have been wishful thinking. We had seen a couple of bluebirds at this birdbath recently, and robins we usually only see briefly in a flock on the front lawn.

Dahlgren Heritage Rail Trail ½ Marathon

The start of the DHRT Half-Marathon has a few hundred yards of rails, a restored ancient wooden caboose, a decrepit freight car, and “The Rocket”, a working railway pumper cart. Race volunteers use it as a moving platform for photographing the runners approaching the finish. See this moving illustration. Among the Fredericksburg Area Runners Club members who finished the race this day was Vic Culp, longtime director, in black hat at back.
