I am not quite sure this tree has died as skeletons dance at twilight on a late October day. Happy Halloween.

Deep Blue Sea
It is amazing how the color of the water can change from one day to another based upon the sky. From blue to green to a deep foreboding black. This day we were greeted with a blue cloudless sky reflecting on a deep blue sea which made for a great day of paddling between Qorneq and Kuummitt in East Greenland.
Peekin’ Pekin
A domestic Pekin duck peeking out from behind the shrubs on the local pond. Last year the pond was visited by a domestic mandarin this year it looks like a Pekin has made this place his home. Not sure if these domesticated ducks flew the coop or were abandoned but it is fun to see them join the mix of winter visitors which are just starting to arrive.
In a Cottonwood Tree
A juvenille Black Crowned Night Heron is taking a break from his fishing but still keeping an eye on the water below while perched in an old cottonwood tree along clear creek in Denver, CO. He sure looks good wrapped in those fall colors.
Wood Duck and Dragonflys
A young wood duck and bright blue dragonflies enjoy a lazy afternoon on the local pond. Photographed last July at Crown Hill Park.
Sharp Looking
Or perhaps looking sharp? This Western Meadowlarks beak fits right in amongst the barbed wire, sharp steel fence post and did I mention those claws. I wouldn’t like to tangle with any of them. Arapahoe Wildlife Refugee near Walden, CO.
Survivor
A little inspiration provided by a silent yet strong tree growing in the barren dry hills of western Colorado near the Utah border. When the going gets tough the tough keep growing.
Golden Hour
Mallard enjoying the evening golden hour which is arriving earlier and earlier everyday. Making it easier to photograph the sunset after work, but getting up in the morning darkness is a bear.
Along Clear Creek in Denver Co.
Sea and Sky Are One.
Looking out on a cloudy night at ice and rocks while the sea and sky become one. A long exposure shot taken near Tsavarnganeq, Greenland.
Singing in the rain
Well…not exactly rain, but this sparrow was belting out quite a tune on a cloudy and misty day near Point Reyes National Seashore, CA.
