Flicker in 'garden work'

With a landscaping intent, this
bird's hard at work in the garden.
Slightly oblivious to others around,
this guy, this flicker, is on the scent,
so close to dinner, yet with much
more work to be done.

Sunflower GOLD(finch)

It didn't take long for a goldfinch
to destroy this sunflower.
Well, 'destroy' is the wrong word.
Perhaps de-seed? Or de-flower?
Those petals were just in the way.

Five Islands, Maine

Waiting on lobster.
Won't take long.
Just off the boat, into the pot.
Any minute now.
What's our number again??
Was that it? No? OK, the next one.
Getting really hungry.
Onion rings & lobster.

Waiting on a boat...

It was a quiet afternoon.
Time passed ever so slowly.
Would she arrive soon?
Would we be late?
Couldn't recall the boat's name.
It's here somewhere. Has to be.....

Sailing, Boothbay, Maine

Quiet afternoon.
By the bay, near the sea.
Soft breeze, full sail.
Enjoying the ride.
End of summer time.
