TURKEY VULTURES

"Free as a bird."

This was a silly sight. Every time one would land, the others would jump from the loud noise it made. What a bunch of turkey birds.

DEER

"Lead me to water"

WILD FLOWERS

                                "It's the time of the season."

                                         Some of the wild flowers around town.

LITTLE HOUSES

“Happy is the house that shelters a friend”

































Little old houses, for you and me.

BLUE JAY FAMILY

“If you cannot teach me to fly, teach me to sing.”

 





























There's mom blue jay, drive bombing me.
And her that's her baby learning how to fly.

PAIR OF BLUE WINGED WARBLERS

"All mankind love a lover.”

EAGLES

“Until you spread your wings you`ll have no idea how far you can fly.”

 Two maybe three baby eagles spreading their wings.

DOVE AND SPARROW

"Everyone and everything that shows up in our life is a reflection of something that is happening inside of us."

I loved this shot. If it wasn't for his reflections, I wound not have seen the little birdie next to him.

BLUE BUNTING

"An aim in life is the only fortune worth finding."

This time of year, brings all the beautiful birds back.

BABY BUNNY

“Where there's life, there's hope.”

EASTERN MEADOWLARK

“Those who wish to sing always find a song.”

SPARROW

“Hope is not a dream but a way of making dreams become reality.”

CEDAR WAXWING

“Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow"

I really like theses birds, their markings are so awesome.

GOOSE PAIR

"We all take different paths in life, but no matter where we go, we take a little of each other everyhwere."
I have been wondering all winter long if that hump of sticks is a nest. Today, I'm pretty sure it is.

RED WINGED BLACK BIRD

"The more effort you put into something, the more you get in return."
My eyes and ears tell me spring is here.

MUSKRAT

"I think I've discovered the secret of life - you just hang around until you get used to it."
























Here's what I saw, on this wet and wild leap day.

MALLARD DUCKS

“Born to be wild - live to outgrow it.”




What a suprise it was to see these big mallard like ducks.

EAGLE

"Find your self-esteem and be forever free to dream."
I never get tired of watching for these awesome birds.

WINTER FLOWER

“A weed is no more than a flower in disguise.”

MUSKRAT

"Love one another and you will be happy. It's as simple and as difficult as that."


















Muskrats are not shy, that's what I love about theses little creatures.

EAGLES

"Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right."
Good to see the young eagle is back this year.

CARDINAL AND FRIEND

"Year's end is neither an end nor a beginning but a going on, with all the wisdom that experience can instill in us."
Some birds stay all winter long, I'm glad the Northern Cardinal is one of them.

NESTING

"One resolution I have made, and try always to keep, is this: To rise above the little things."
Beautiful sights on a cold winter's day.

GREAT HORNED OWL

Be happy. It's one way of being wise.




Not only did I see him, I woke him up.

RED SHOULDERED HAWK

“If you greatly desire something, have the guts to stake everything on obtaining it.”

There was even a red shoulder hawk out, on the bird hunt this morning.

CARDINAL

“Hold fast to your dreams, for without them life is a broken winged bird that cannot fly.”
Love cardinals in the winter time.

HOME OF THE WHITE HAWK

"With positive goals, attitude and desire, any obstacle can be overcome."
If you are lucky like me, you could spot a white hawk anywhere.

RED-TAILED COUPLE

“The secret of happiness is to admire without desiring.”
Here's a closer look.

EAGLES

We always long for the forbidden things, and desire what is denied us.”





















And here is the reason I love the season.

SUNRISE

“With each sunrise, we start anew”

As the moon set the sunrise was not far behind.

LUNAR ECLIPSE

“Keep your eyes on the stars, and your feet on the ground.” December 10, 2011, the lunar eclipse was on the horizon for a few minutes then disappeared like it was melting.

SEAGUL

“No object is so beautiful that, under certain conditions, it will not look ugly."


Not my favorite bird when its hanging in a parking lot. Seeing them fish gives you a whole new out look on their beauty.

TURKEYS

"Happiness isn't something you experience; it's something you remember."

Seeing the turkeys with their tails up, is something I will never forget. It only took seven years to finally see them strutting around like this.

BELTED KING FISHER

"Do what you love and love what you do." Waiting for the sun to rise is one of the things, I love to do..
