A black capped chickadee finds a pleasant perch to greet the morning light which has finally made it over the mountains on this Decembers day.
Happy Monday.

Decembers Light
The mid-December sun, traveling low across southern sky casts long shadows on the icey blue face of a small pond and gently lights the landscape beyond. Decembers light is like no other and helps me keep track of the time like no wall calendar or wristwatch can.
And the new winter bunn is….
Each winter we are kept good company by at least one and sometimes two Rocky Mountain Cottontails Rabbits which collectively go by the moniker of winter bunns. This years bunn looks happy and healthy but bunny’s beware fox and bobcat tracks have been spotted nearby.
Sunrise
A misty morning sunrise over a leafless forest. Nice way to start the day.
Wake up call
Looks like somebody got a wake up call and right on time as well. With little holes poking through the still snow covered fields all through the valley the Prairie Dogs are definitely wake up. One big stretch, a quick look around and it time to go on this fine spring morning.
Across the valley
Majestic peaks light by the morning sun.
Sliding closer with each stride waiting for the sun to warm our bones.
As eyes gaze across the valley.
Moonset-Sunrise
As the sun rose the moon set.
A silent rhythm heard.
And so the day began.
Without words
Without words much is said.
By not knowing much is known.
A wondrous morning begins in the hills of the Lamar Valley.
Like Ghosts
The fur on the Pronghorn has become paler as winter progressed and now they move through the snow covered grasslands like ghosts with eyes that keep track on your every move. Like ghosts moving through the snowy landscape.
Wapiti
A young elk looks up from feeding on a quiet winter day.
A mutual hello and we’re on our way.
