Spent the day cleaning up around the house and trying to get organized. Almost forgot to do a shot today. Brought my camera for the ride to grab a Ice coffee for me and Timmies for the rest of the gang. A quick shot in the parking lot

 

Have a great week friends

A large flock of geese takes to the air in evening light

 

Each day among these migratory birds moves through a kind of cycle, with variations that eventually become familiar but which don't become any less compelling or exciting. It typically starts with a pre-dawn drive and arrival at a likely spot to find them — preferably in fog! It is always thrilling to catch the first sight and sound of the birds. The day continues, likely passing from fog to hazy sunshine, as the birds tend to settle into midday routines. Sometime after lunch it is (almost always) time for a break, but the work resumes by mid-afternoon. At first things happen slowly, but as evening approaches the pace picks up – more birds coming and going, more frequent take-offs, light that evolves in beautiful ways — and before long it is sunset and then dusk.

 

Early morning and evening are times of daily transition for the birds, so there is often a lot of action. Although a mass take-off can occur at almost any time if something sets off the flock, they become more likely and more impressive in the evening. They also become more difficult to photograph! As light fades and the subject becomes more interesting, the photographic challenges of low light increase. Rather than giving in to the dimming light I often take a different approach and embrace the motion blur, following the general mass of birds but allowing the fine details to soften and merge.

View On Black

This past spring when I went up to open our cabin for the summer, I decided to take a bird feeder with me to see what species of birds would come in to feed. I knew I had to bring the feeder in at night as the last time I left one out a few years back a black bear peeled it like a banana! It was raining so I set my camera up on my tripod inside the kitchen and glanced outside every so often so see if anything had come in. Sure enough a "gross" of grosbeaks came in and were enjoying the easy meal. We have Black-headed grosbeaks at home but I had never seen these particular birds before. iBird Pro is such a valuable tool for me! I was able to catch this male on the deck rail (I wish it were a more natural perch, but it is what it is). They came by on two different evenings and I did not see them again all summer.

- www.kevin-palmer.com - The views and the warm lighting were incredible from this vantage point halfway down Store Malene. The visibility was zero when I left the summit.

Evening Fog rolled in and settled over the water at the opening to the bigger lake behind. It was so very quiet, no wind, no birds, just silence. And the silence was amazing.

In the background is Lys8 hora in Beskid mountains.
