Love fog. It makes everything slurry and gentle. Sorry I have not visit more Kathie, I'll have to do a great catch-up soon.

I love birding in the mist as well, the ethereal feel of the day creates a special feeling alright :)

Lovely foggy shots Kathie. Not great for birding though.

Roy, while the birding and the photography is a challenge, it is still fun and I love it when that "mystery bird" flies out of the fog and over your head!
