STATE BIRD

"Earn the right to be proud and confident".  
Always nice to see a touch of red flying around, on the coldest of winter days. 

AMERICAN BALD EAGLE

"Refuse to be average. Let your heart soar as high as it will". 

Right place at the right time. 

RED TAILED HAWK

"Beauty is everywhere a welcome guest".
I was looking for the snowy owls but, all I saw was this beauty. 

YELLOW FLOWERS

"You must be the change you wish in the world". 
The last of the summer flowers, before the leaves change for the season.

HAWK

"Show me how big your brave is". 
This guy flew in for a closer look of the little dog we had in the back yard. And then he hung out for some cool shots on the fence. 

SQUIRREL

"Create each day anew".

Never saw one like this before. So cool! 

WILDFLOWERS

"Grace is the beauty of form under the influence of freedom".

Summer days nearing their end. 

SUNSET BY ALLISON

"Blessed is the influence of one true, loving human soul on another".
Nice shot by my oldest. I pulled over to get the shot. She grabbed the camera before I stopped and took this beautiful picture. 

MALLARD COUPLE AND A MALE BLUE WINGED TEAL DUCK

" A friend is one who knows you and loves you just the same."
Love when the ducks gather in rain ponds.

GREAT EGRET

"If we don't change, we don't grow. If we don't grow, we aren't really living."

These awesome birds are back and probably freezing.

WHITE TAILED DEER

" Enjoy what you have before it becomes something you had."
Such a beautiful beast!

THE BRIGHTER SIDE

"Life is a ticket to the greatest show on earth."

MARVELOUS WONDERS

"life has its own hidden forces which you can only discover by living."

This has become my new favorite canyon.

WEIGHT OF THE WORLD.

“Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.”
Who am I, who are you, what are we anymore?

SEEK AND FIND

“Worry not that no one knows of you; seek to be worth knowing.”
What matters the most as how well you walk through the fire.
