Looking like it just finished a meal this Red tailed Hawk was right back at it. Watching the fields intently for a mouse to stir and trying to make the most of the short days this time of year.

Mammoth Monochromes
A monochrome afternoon on monochrome late November day. The air had a bit of chill and the sky full of cloud yet not threatening in any way.
Peeking between trees for a wonderful views.
A few inches of snow still on the ground from a recent storm letting you know real winter is only a storm away.
Big views across terraces where the earth demonstrates it is indeed alive.
A beautiful afternoon despite the flatness of the sky.
Giving Thanks: simple things
Giving thanks this day for simple things like landscapes open and wide. For food on the table and family and friends the things that bring it all to life.
Happy Thanksgiving.
Late November Days
What seems like 5 is only 3 as the sun sets earlier day by day.
No longer Autumn by any means yet winter has yet to fully show it’s face.
Ahhhh…. those Late November Days.
After a snow
After a snowy evening and long cold night a Swainsons Hawk uses a fence post to keep an eye out for a morning meal. Photographed on a quiet stretch of road in Northern Colorado.
Afternoon Stroll
A stroll up the trail on a November afternoon. Will it be warm will it be cold, sunny or cloudy? Probably all of the above.
The trail was covered with a light layer of snow yet the creek flowed freely.
Mountain Ash berries glowing a brilliant orange seem to scream “hey birds…what are you waiting for.”
Temperatures warmed along the way as icicles glued to moss began to thaw.
…and what started a cloudy day become much less so on a slow and quiet afternoon stroll.
Rise and shine
A big beautiful sunrise is a nice way to start the day.
…and if your viewing this post in the evening just image it as sunset.
Happy Tuesday.
Half moon rising
A quiet late autumn afternoon with sun going down and moon already up.
Wishing you a bit of quiet and solitude this weekend.
A quiet field
Silence is golden or in this case black and white as afternoon became early evening in the Pelican Valley of Yellowstone National park.
Tour Guide
One of Yellowstone National Parks wonderful tour guides pointing out Floating Island Lake in the morning light. A little past due but November 1st was National Bison Day. We sure are lucky to still have these guys walking around free in a few spots on the globe.
