The looks says it all. This Jay had his back to me so I was trying to sneak up on him and focus on his very colorful tail feathers. Needless to say he was on to me.

Three Peaks
Looking up from our camp near the fjords at three peak magnificent mountain peaks in East Greenland. Over the horizon the view continues with endless peaks and glacier filled seas. Summer, 2013.

Pied Piper?
Naah… just a fine looking Muskrat munching away on a mid-day snack. Photographed near an irrigation ditch while driving the backroads of Weld County, CO hunting for migrating birds.
Amore?
We watched as a pair of swallows hesitantly landed close to each other on a branch. Within a minute or two they seemed to get comfortable and began to check each other out so to speak. When the female decided she had seen enough she took to the air and the male appeared to try and follow with all his might. Unfortunately, both swallows quickly disappeared into a large flock which was feeding on insects at the pond and we soon lost track of them. I guess we will never know how this relationship ended.
Sumac, Snow and Blue Skies.
Sumac buds busting out to meet the sun after a light dusting of snow the previous evening. Today it feels like spring is here to stay.
Jazz
Miles, Coltrane, Evans…..or as Louie Armstrong once said…man if you gotta ask you don’t know.
Spring
Yesterday’s weather started with rain which then progressed into snow. The result this morning is a beautiful blue sky and a nice inch or so of wonderful white on the ground which will be gone in a few hours. A great way to start off a new week.
