The Yearling.......

 Born in texas probably this past fall this little guy is not even in full color yet ...... it seems some birds do know what you are doing sometimes or are extremely interested in what us humans are doing, we did this for a few minutes then he started making pose like movements.

Have a great week.....busy, crazy busy.

Looking for a Meal.....

Our sparrow muncher stopped by at sunset last night for a little snack.He's four feet from the bird food but with his curved beak he can't pick it up so he waits for a small rat or bird to come by to feed.

Have a great day.....thanks for taking the time to look at my image!

Thank you........

A quick stop and look toward the camera as if he knows he is getting his picture taken, he attacks the stack of food and is gone in a flash, it takes place in less than three seconds.

Have a great day! Thanks for taking the time to look at my images!

Through the raindrops...

As the storm clouds open the covey retreats to the big blue spruce tree we call the condo, one by one they all funnel past this one, he must be the elder. When all are safe he heads to the condo himself until it stops raining ...

Our rain is gone....hurry up flowers!

Have a great day!

Mom said there would be days like these.....

Four days and counting it has rained this hard most of the day. We have our herd of Cedar Waxwing's  migrating thru as they do every year, they strip  the large berry producing trees of the old soft decaying fruit left over from the winter, clean up the yard and are gone. Soon the Barn Swallows will return from Mexico and start building there nest in the same spots as always, our cat can't wait for the  dive bombing to begin.....till then the rain continues, off and on today. Rain adversely effects the clarity of the shot, most seem out of focus it's really the distortion of the rain thru the shot. This shot is 800mm deep and almost 120 feet away....have a great day, hope you enjoy this one.
