This is the last of my dried flower focus stacks. I took this inside the flower shed at Wright-Locke Farm. I wish I'd done more of these, with fresh flowers, over the summer.
Birthday Bundle - Four years ago I had an unforgettable encounter on my birthday.
While photographing a recently fledged Western Screech-Owl at sunrise, I heard the jays furiously mobbing something in the bushes.
I thought there might be a raptor or Bobcat in there but my jaw dropped when a Mountain Lion jumped the creek to escape the jays and ended up just 25 feet away from me. I didn't want to turn my back to the lion or make any sudden movements at such close quarters so I stood my ground. To my surprise - the lion didn't even notice I was there! After a split second the lion realized I was right in front and bolted away.
I couldn't take any photos since I was setup for long exposures on a tripod and didn't want to follow since I suspected this was either a female or young adult. With cubs around you really want to give them a wide berth. I closed the day out with Gray Fox and Bobcat sightings for an amazing quadruple wildlife day.
Definitely a day that will stay with me for the rest of my life - the adrenaline was really pumping!

Jerry got me this sweater for Christmas as well as the Nikon D80 I am shooting this picture with.
Tai Shan had a ball in the rain. He was rolling and pulling out grass along the way. He was too cute for words!!
Linnea at Oda's soccer tournament today. Cold and windy day.
Added to the Cream of the Crop pool as most favourited photo.
My sweet daughter gave the dinosaurs their own early Christmas presents. Lavender and Lily got homemade vests, hats and bracelets. We had to go out and take a picture while going around looking at the holiday lights. Two more sleeps...
It snowed all day yesterday here in northeastern Colorado, and although this morning the temperatures were below 0 degrees Fahrenheit, I found this intrepid couple out for a walk.

It's the newspapers again!
The stapled edges and the open page edges alternating in this bundle of papers tied ready for recycling.
And sometimes, just sometimes, I do take photographs of something else!

CP train 486 was shrugging off a winter chill at Rondout behind a trio of SD40-2s.
At the time, a scene like this was a daily occurance, but wasn't taken for granted as the writing was on the wall.
Today, it's all devolved to a General Electric show around here.
I saw this whole huddle (?) of adorable Canada Goose goslings yesterday, when I went with Ron (Flickrite Ronaldok) down to the Coaldale Bird of Prey Centre near Lethbridge in southern Alberta. They were hanging out with Mom and Dad near one of the ponds at the Centre. We'd been watching several goslings and then suddenly Mom stood up and revealed this tightly packed bundle of downy feathers : )
