Dawn Patrol
A young wolf cub blends into their environment and settles down to welcome the first warming rays of the summer sun.
On last summers kayaking trip we were able to spend a few days in the company of a small wolf pack with several cubs. The young ones would gather each morning on this beach just as the sun came up. This one knew just where to lay to catch those first warming rays.
Vancouver Island, BC.
Left Profile
This was on of the most gregarious Ravens we have encountered and quite interested in finding out what we were up to with our cameras. He hung around checking us out and gave us both left and right profile views. I think left profile was his best side. Yellowstone National Park, November 2015.
Feels Like December
The snow had called and the sun was out. Feels like a December morning. Holga Pinhole camera and Kodak Tmax 100iso film.
Silence is.

Looking across the San Luis Valley from Penitente Canyon on a chilly November afternoon. A beautiful place to take a walk and quiet the mind even when the sky is grey. Silence is indeed golden or better yet silent.
Birds of a Feather
you know….snow geese and sandhill cranes working the same grain-field while keeping on the lookout for the wily coyote.
When nothing is sure something.
Looking out through the empty space that makes the arch an arch on a cool and cloudy afternoon. Arches National Park, Utah.
Guess Who.
While walking in our local forest we noticed the crows making a ruckus and several were gathered in a tree cawing away. We followed the noise and guess who we found? A fairly young looking Great Horned Owl. He was being kept on a short leash by the crows but it did not see to bother him. More often than not following the crows in these woods leads us to a Great Horned Owl.Poor guys never get a minute of peace.
Teal Pair
In a little eddy on the muddy banks of Clear Creek a Green Winged Teal couple spent the morning feeding while we looked on from a distance. This week the waterfowl have returned in large numbers and we are thankful for that.
Score
Finding food sure can be hard work. Which reminds it’s time to put out the feeder for these guys as winter is heading our way.
We were watching this Sparrow search intently through the gravel and forest debris and score with what appears to be a tasty little seed.
A bite well earned.
