Sometimes it's nice to photograph something other than wildlife. #photography, #eclipse, #moon

I kept hearing a bullock's oriole during a nature walk today but couldn't spot one. After settling in at home for the evening I spotted this guy in my backyard. #birds, #nature, #photography, #colorado

Hi Steve, could this be a cackling goose? I saw one the other day here in Colorado. They look so similar to a Canada goose.

Today was a much better day in Monte Vista Colorado. Yesterday was wind and snow, today calm and sunshine. It was nice to see huge numbers of Sandhill Cranes. #birds, #nature, #photography, #colorao

I just finished writing Jeff Crank today... again. I'm not sure what it will take for him to wake up to the reality of the situation. Coverups only make things worse.
