  • Scrub Jay
  • Eating Snow - I had not seen a squirrel do this previously.
  • Oriental Poppy
  • Salsify Seedhead with Raindrops - Best viewed in the largest size.  I had processed this image during the day and then last night I read an article about eating salsify.  It seems that every part is edible and can be used in many ways for cooking.  I think next summer I might test that by eating the roots of one or two.
  • Rock Dove/Rock Pigeon
  • Greedy Raven
  • Squirrel in the Snowstorm - it is warmer today and the snow is melting.
  • It's Snowing! It was quite a pretty snowfall.
  • Raven with one of its eyelids over the eye.  In other pics of him, the eye was as expected.
  • Deer in the Yard Next Door Last Summer - Byron is working in NM and does not have access to wifi, but he will be back in Montana before long.
  • Peony in My Garden Last Spring - I have posted two different versions and am curious to know what you think.
  • Peony with Coreopsis Last Spring - the same shot with the original bg and a painterly treatment.  You can see the textures in the larger version.
  • Lupines - I have a lot of lupines in my garden in spring, most of which have self sown themselves everywhere; these are just a few of them last spring.
  • House Sparrow Having a Bath
  • House Sparrows Bathing in the Fountain
  • House Finch - Greg is still in the hospital and undergoing more tests as they try to find the source of his stomach bleeding.
  • Mourning Dove - Dratted wind!
  • Snow on the Mugho Pine - Phil and I are back home.  He was diagnosed with heart failure.  We will have to make some more changes to our diets and some other things, but we will cope.  Thanks so much for all your good wishes for his health while we were at the hospital.  It bolstered my spirits a lot!  I hope Greg has weathered the cyclone in New Zealand, but the flooding and damage from the storm looks horrible in the news reports.
  • Recent Snow - Greg sent me a message saying he was back in the hospital and waiting for the cyclone that is due to hit them in NZ.  I am taking my husband to the emergency room so I will comment when I can.

    Much maligned for having no respect for public art, nonetheless it is the oldest breed of pigeon in the world. Super detail and capture of the different iridescent hues. Marlis' father used to breed them as carrier pigeons for the Swiss Army.

    Love the light on this beautiful pigeon, capturing the iridescent feathers! When I was a child, I had one for a pet, his name was Herbert, and he lived for at least 10 years or more!
