Goldfinch and Thistle
An American Goldfinch was working over these thistle plant pretty good for an afternoon meal at the Bosque Del Apache national Wildlife refuge. From the looks of it this chubby guy is well versed at extracting thistle seeds.
November Towhee
A Spotted Towhee enjoying the late afternoon view from an old adobe wall with a crisp blue sky overhead. This guy almost looked ornamental or sculptural in his pose but after a few minutes was gone.
Fog and Blue Sky
This was a nice way to start a long and tedious 9 hour drive. With fog hanging low in a forest of burnt trees the sun and blue sky make there way in. Happy Monday to all.

Early Evening
Early evening in a quiet wash. Long winter shadows still prevail although the return of cumulus clouds suggests spring is indeed on on the way. Taken off the beaten path in Northern New Mexico on a weekend drive.
Pull over!
When on long drives I always see things I want to photograph but seldom stop to do so. Don’t know why but I suspect the lure of the destination becomes more important than the journey. This time I did pull over for a nice sunset lighting up the tall grass in Northern New Mexico a few weeks ago.
