I had a fun morning today. I threw on some sweats and a sweatshirt to go out into the yard and play with my four dogs and maybe work on some training. I grabbed the treat bag and figured I’d take my camera just in case I decided I wanted to take some photos of the dogs while we were outside. I also decided I’d put some bird food out since the… Read More
Last weekend I set up my blind outside my feeder stations with one objective in mind. I wanted to photograph a bird that has been pretty elusive and only seldom photographed by me. Red-Bellied woodpeckers in my area see, to be very skittish, more so than other species of woodpeckers. I see them fairly frequently at my feeders and in the woods around my house.

I have not gotten many chances to photograph bald eagles yet this summer. I… Read More

In the three years that I have been living in a more rural location I have been fortunate to be able to experience nature more up close and personal than ever before. It has enhanced my life in many ways. I have become a better photographer and more importantly a better person. Unfortunately or fortunately, being more present in nature I have also witnessed the struggle to survive that goes on daily… Read More
Today when I was getting ready to go out and take some photos I thought to myself I think I am going to see something unusual today. I walked down to the stream I almost always go to and as I started walking I began seeing common mergansers. There was a large group of common mergansers swimming in the stream. This might by name sound, um common, but for me it was… Read More
