Pie Billed Grebe

A little Pie Billed Grebe sitting content on the nest. They way they guys can just sink into the water instead of diving is just so cool.
Ravens, fog and rock

A pair of ravens having a chat on a foggy morning near Ucluelet, BC. They were probably discussing the pair of eagles in the trees above or maybe the grey whale swimming by below.
Against the odds.

Nature has a way if left to its own accord.
Storm on the tracks

Horned Lark 2014 version

I love being able to photograph these guys, such an interesting bird. Taken while driving the backroads of Weld county, CO.
Bullocks

The Oriole that is. Bight orange and beautiful the Bullocks Oriole. Who can resist that goatee and the Zoroesque mask. We typically see hundreds of Oriole nest in the winter and early spring but only catch a rare glimpse of the maker. This year we were lucky and got several nice opportunities.
Yellow Headed Blackbird

This gal was perched high on a cattail checking out the males who were singing their hearts out for a mate. Nothing like hearing a chorus of yellow headed blackbirds singing away to let you know that spring is here.
Feathered

Feathered sky in a rocky landscape with the sea behind my eyes. Sky as well as land and sea are all a part of place. Understanding what they do is knowledge of that place.
Ibises

A group of white faced Ibises make a one night stand at the local pond. We only run across these guys once in a blue moon so it was indeed a pleasure to observe these guys feeding and refueling prior to take off for wetter lands further to the north.
