Exuding quiet and cutting through the noise a Dark-eyed Junco sits backlight as the sun starts to warm the day.
Quiet, yes, we like quiet.

Doe a Deer
Boy do they grow up fast.
With just a hint of those youthful spots left behind this curious youngster looks us over as sit and watch on a fall morning not so long ago.
Not So Long Ago
A beautiful early November sunset on a local pond. Not so long ago but far away. The the leaves are all down and now the colors in the sky have changed into their winter shades.
Well Hello There
A late fall surprise. A bit of green still hanging on where warm water emptied into much colder pond. Where there is a will there is a way.
The long view
Between the clouds, the wind and even a little snow, sunlight adds a bit of contrast to it all.
Red-naped Sapsucker
It was one of those days days where you can hear the pecking from afar. A noise from high atop the trees peaking your curiosity as to who is up there. A Downy, a Hairy?
On this afternoon it was an unexpected visitor a handsome Red-naped Sapsucker. While not extremely uncommon they are a species we only see a few times a year which made all that neck-craning and staring into the sun all the more worthwhile.
Like a ghost
It was nice to see this Great Horned Owl perching silently nearby. While we typically hear them more than see them the forests nearby have recently fallen silent to their hoots and we were afraid they had vanished.
A reassuring sight if only for a moment.
After some technological as well as inspirational challenges we are glad to be back and hope to return to our regular routine on the blog. Thanks for your continued support and interest.
A Ravens Beard
Face to face with the Ravens Beard and a tidy well kept beard to boot.
The great silence
When the sound that makes the silence becomes to hard to hear.
When more effort is spent blocking out instead of taking in
The great silence will be lost.
