Red Tailed on a Grey Day
A Red tailed Hawk surveying the fields for prey on an overcast spring morning. Gotta be plenty of mice out there, somewhere. Out in the fields near Laramie, Wy.
Spring Chickadee
With the trees budding out and the air warming up a little Chickadee enjoy their perch on a Saturday afternoon.
Coyote and grass.
Each partially hidden within the grass we were content to observe each other for quite some time. Eventually hunger got the best of us and I headed home for dinner and the coyote off to hunt.
Silhouetted
A Young Bald Eagle chirping away is silhouetted against the grey sky of an overcast day along the snake river in Grand Teton National Park. Happy Friday.
Good Night Heron
Flying off into the sunset we say good night to a Black Crowned Night Heron. Not a bad way to end the day. Photographed with an older, forgotten and long gone, point and shoot camera on an evening walk in Ferndale CA. a few years back.
Willet
A willet enjoys the temporary ponds and the meals within created by spring rain along the front range while migrating to a more suitable habitat along further north.
Wood Thrush
For me the Wood Thrush is a bird I may often hear but seldom seem. Hanging out in those forests deep with green and hidden out of sight they have such a wonderful song. After listening to his song for several minutes this Wood Thrush flew out and landed on a post in a clearing for a minute or two before retuning back into the woods. Love the pudgy belly on this one.
Mirror Mirror
A look only a mule can give…although I kinda feel this is how I might be looking back at people some days as well.
Warm Welcome
A male house finch enjoying the ever earlier sunrise as spring marches onward. With rare exception early April seems to mark the time of year we begin to see and hear the finches in our neighborhood each year and as the sun rises earlier everyday they provide a warm welcome to those still crisp but beautiful spring mornings.
