Extracting tiny seeds from a dried thistle seems like a tough way to earn your keep but this finch is a master of his trade. We watched as this guy quickly pulled seeds from the dried thistle and had himself quite a meal. Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge.

A beautiful early November sunset on a local pond. Not so long ago but far away. The the leaves are all down and now the colors in the sky have changed into their winter shades.
Through the haze and between the clouds light will find its way. Bryce Canyon, UT
A place away from noise.
The eye of a pinhole camera looking up a quiet valley in central Colorado on a late fall day. Zeroimage 2000 pinhole camera and Kodak Tmax100 film.
Despite the fact that mornings are starting to dip below freezing, this little guy is still hanging in there and looking quite comfortable with his antennae blowing in the breeze on a colorful fall morning.
Is a lip smacking feast awaiting this red fox? We caught a brief glimpse of this red fox through the car window while on a quiet country road and it sure looked like they were onto a meal. Before we could see the scene play out the fox moved into the woods and was lost from sight. A brief yet gratifying experience and a tale yet to be told.
Autumn colors in the valley and snow up high, the transition is almost complete.
When we spotted this Juvenile Black Crowned Night Heron in a tree at sunset he took off flew a quick circle and landed agin on the smallest thinest branch of the tree. Wobbling back and forth flapping his wings to keep steady….kids will be kids.
