Photographed in my yard. Four photos of the same bird. If this is the same bird I photographed Feb. 5 it injured a toe sometime between the time I saw it Feb. 5 and Feb. 8. IMG_5865

“...what thrills me about trains is not their size or their equipment but the fact that they are moving, that they embody a connection between unseen places.”
― Marianne Wiggins
These railroad tracks run alongside the Colorado River (on the left here, sitting below/between the gravel bank and the sagebrush) and the road, to the right of the tracks. It's a dramatic experience if a driver happens to be cruising along one of the tight corners of the road at the same time as an oncoming train!

As I have probably written before, architecture is a favorite subject for photography, at least for me. Whether it's an old temple, an arched bridge, an impressive skyscraper or just a random building that has something unique in it, most likely it will get my attention and I will stop to take a closer look and perhaps snap a photo. This structure here is an office building located at Boston's Seaport neighborhood. Modern architecture can be quite fascinating especially when different materials (such as glass, bricks, concrete) get mixed up with sharp edges and strong lines to produce something that sometimes may be a bit abstract. Like here for example. Looking at the glass panels and the reflected sky, the eye gets confused in regards to what it's seeing. Hats off to the architect!

look in the eyes. Eyes show you wether it is a herbivore or a predator. The Eyes of a herbivore are at the sides of the and often they have a horizontal slot. So they can see movements better. Predators need a clear knowledge of the distance, their eyes are in front of the head and very sharp
A woody perennial flowering plant of the genus Rosa, in the family Rosaceae. There are over three hundred species and thousands of cultivars. They form a group of plants that can be erect shrubs, climbing, or trailing, with stems that are often armed with sharp prickles. Flowers vary in size and shape and are usually large and showy, in colours ranging from white through yellows and reds. Most species are native to Asia, with smaller numbers native to Europe, North America, and northwestern Africa. Species, cultivars and hybrids are all widely grown for their beauty and often are fragrant. Roses have acquired cultural significance in many societies. Rose plants range in size from compact, miniature roses, to climbers that can reach seven meters in height. Different species hybridize easily, and this has been used in the development of the wide range of garden roses. 18287

Eight rotary saw blades with sharp, well-used teeth. Inspired by Smile on Saturday --Things with Teeth.
This hawk flew into a tree somewhat near me. I approached for shots, but it was nearly directly aligned with the sun; did the best I could for the backlight. It was chased into, then soon chased out of, that tree by a small flock of swallows. I'm pretty sure that this is a sharp-shinned hawk, based on its legs and tail tip... Correct me if I'm wrong!
Backyard bird, Yakima County, Washington. This Sharp-shinned Hawk has been a frequent customer to my snack bar. Occasionally he/she captures a snack. IMG_3731
