The sounds of summer
Yellow, blue and a touch of green singing the sweet sounds of summer.
Photographed along the shores of Chatfield Reservoir. Near Denver, CO.
The early bird
An American Robin enjoying the sunrise on the summer solstice. This time the early bird might get the mulberry and not the worm.
Common Loon
A rarity for us and quite a treat was to spend time on a lake with a few common loons. Waking up to hear their calls on a misty morning is something I will always remember.
Date Night
Western Grebes enjoying a night on the town.
Mr. Grumpy
A Blue Heron waits, and waits, and waits for the rain to finally end, taking it all in stride although there was maybe a twinge grumpiness beginning showing on their face. Photographed along the Northern California Coast. Dec, 2015.
Sharp Shinned Hawk
When we first spotted this Sharp Shinned Hawk they had their back to us and appeared to finishing a meal. After watching for awhile we were treated with a nice view of this wonderful looking bird. Photographed north of Walden, CO.
Female Cowbird
A female Western Cowbird quietly foraging for insects on a cloudy monotone afternoon. Photographed near Laramie, WY.
Spring Shower
A coot family in the foreground and a stray pie-billed grebe youngster in the rear, enjoying, or perhaps tolerating, a late spring shower on a local pond.
Female Red Winged Blackbird
The Female Red Winged Blackbirds around us seem to stay hidden in the reeds and cattails once the nesting season has begun. Luckily on this day we were treated to the subtle beauty of this female sitting high on a cattail in the pond.
