These transients are hard to coax into the open. His close cousin, the Saltmarsh Sparrow is on my target list for this fall.

The black bear is one of the most misunderstood animals on the planet.
Here in Eastern North Carolina, we're home to the largest black bears and one of the highest densities of black bears in North America. These incredible animals have captivated me, leading me to spend countless hours over the years studying their behavior and photographing them in the wild.
Much of what people think they know about black bears is based on myths rather than facts. In reality, they're intelligent, fascinating animals that usually prefer to avoid people whenever possible.
Black bears deserve our respect, not our fear. The more we understand them, the better we can coexist and appreciate these magnificent animals for what they truly are.
Tryon is located in the foothills of North Carolina. Known for its quaint Main Street of shops, restaurants and art galleries the outlying areas are equestrian farms and facilities.
Well, I didn't have much luck. Too many clouds, too much light pollution, too few visible meteors, but did capture a faint one in the lower left. Interesting researching it, though. Maybe next year. Swansboro, NC.

Obviously I didn't take this photo, but I took this photo of the photo so that I could clean it up. It shows my husband's grandfather "Boots" (on the left), who, at that time, was a fireman for the NC&StL out of Nashville, Tennessee. He later became an engineer. Taken late 1930s to early 1940s.
On the train tracks again! I decided to risk it as things were not too busy in Greenlee at the time.

Up in Virginia, it seemed that Southern's SD24s were always buried in the consist. On Dec. 6, 1975 I finally caught one in the lead, No. 6345, bringing a manifest into Asheville, NC. It would be the only shot that I ever got of one on the point.
North Carolina Highway 50 (NC 50) is a primary state highway in the U.S. state of North Carolina. It traverses north–south, from Topsail Beach to Creedmoor, connecting the cities of Warsaw, Newton Grove, Benson, and Raleigh.
Since Katie & I have moved here (Aug 2007), this angle of the city has always appealed to me... so... finally went out and got it. It's been almost one year to the day that I moved to Raleigh, NC and I've got to say that it is still growing on me - but I appreciate it more and more everyday.
This is definitely one of my more favorite shots of the Raleigh skyline.
