This Hermit Thrush made just a long enough appearance to allow us a quick photo before hopping back into the undergrowth of the forest. A nice treat to see a bird we usually only get to hear. It has such a wonderful song. https://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Hermit_Thrush/sounds
Imagine the world on a different scale.

A giant walking the earth with mile long footsteps or an atom floating in space?
Beyond Human Scale lies another world waiting to be discovered.
When the snow melts and the grass turns green the Wilsons Phalaropes return to grace the ponds along the roadsides outside of Walden, CO. These small birds are truly a favorite of mine.

A fine looking bluebird couple hanging out on a post along the road to Red Rock Lakes National Wildlife Refuge. This couple was taking a break from chasing away the tree swallows from their nesting box along the road. It seemed like at every nest box along the road similar battles were taking place.

A bird we are always excited to see, a Western Tanager enjoying the comming of spring even on a cloudy day. Gardiner, MT.
After the rain the sun was out but obscured by a fog of steam in the air. It was a weird feeling of sunshine on a foggy day. Northern California.
