Who Me?

With the new iphone and my back pain I haven't been posting much of late.  However, I have been posting very regularly to Tumblr and Instagram.  So if you want to see what's up check out those sites.  I do plan to continue posting here, especially when I'm using the Nikon.

Getting Closer

Red-winged Blackbird

Nesting Season

Pine Warbler

It's not Spring until the warblers arrive.  A nice Pine Warbler to start the season

Last Winter Color

After Thursday's long rain and warm temperatures I expect signs of life to become more aggressive.  As such I imagine this will be my last photos of the subtle colors of winter.

Circle of Life

These remains were not too far from the eagle's nest so I'm thinking one of the eagles had duck for lunch.  Nature is so beautiful, even in decay.

Walking Along in the Wood

Great Horned Owl

In recent weeks I have seen a Long-eared, Saw-whet, and this Great Horned Owl at Heinz NWR.  It's one of the reasons I love this place.  It's such a treat to start my day with something like this.

Taking a Walk

Fox Sparrow

Rough Walking

Yesterday's walk was beautiful but treacherous.  Pretty much every foot print made in the last five days was frozen in shape turning a normally easy flat walk into a challenging, slippery path.

A Little Bit of Snow

We might not be getting much snow but it sure is cold!

Morning Walk
