White faced Ibis
We photographed this White Faced Ibis which appeared to be roosting in a small lake on a cloudy morning. We had never seen Ibis on this lake and in fact very rarely see them in our area at all. About 10 minutes after we photographed them the flock took off and we have yet to see Ibis on this lake again.

From a tree on the fields edge
While the Prairie Dogs were busy excavating new dens and scurrying about this Hawk stood watch from the edge of the field waiting for their next meal. We stopped to watch for quite some time and although in our estimation the opportunity for a meal did present itself the Hawk the Hawk thought otherwise yet kept their silent watch.

It’s always nice to have something you can count on. Although it may not always occur on your schedule or terms nature always makes good on the promise of spring.
