I cannot complain about July so far, if there is something to wish for the rest of the month this will be more sunshine. For now I try to get out as soon as there is the chance to catch some rays. Midweek evening hiking in Dehme, Ostwestfalen, Germany
Black-Capped Chickadee.
Between 4 3/4 to 5 3/4 inches long. Black cap and throat, white cheeks, gray back and dull white underparts. Wing feathers narrowly and indistinctly edged with white.
They can be found in deciduous and mixed forests, and open woodlands and suburban areas in winter.
They range from Alaska east across Canada to Newfoundland, and south to northern California, northern New Mexico, Missouri and northern New jersy. Winters south to Maryland and Texas.

Today I had a day off.
Guess what.
There wasn't any sunshine but just a grey day.
I decided to try and find some new stairs instead of beautiful flowers...
warmth from the setting sun mixed with the coldness from the fog, while i stand and enjoy the nature
Despite the mixed bag of weather we've been getting lately - and a general feeling that the bird migration has been slowed by the cold nights and a couple of surprise snowfalls - there's no doubt that the spring resurgence of life on the northern prairie is underway. Therefore, over the next few days, we'll look at some signs of spring in and around Grasslands NP.
First up, this Black-tailed Prairie Dog with a mouthful of dried grass. The little rodents have been foraging now for several weeks, replacing fat reserves lost over the winter. I've watched them digging roots and clipping last year's grass, but recently they've been adding a little fresh salad to their diet.
Endless entertainment for a photographer visiting dogtown...

I was surprised to see a small branch with tiny lilac flowers in bloom again. I used my tablecloth as a backdrop for a few photos. So now there is a bit of spring and fall mixed together. No matter what season the flowers smell lovely.
