Another archive shot from a few years back.
Evening Grosbeak
Wir waren mit dem Auto unterwegs als ich die Sonnenstrahlen aus den Wolken so durchbrechen sah, was immer einen besonderen Reiz auf mich ausübt. Zum Glück saß nicht ich am Steuer, hatte meine Kamera griffbereit und die Frontscheibe war auch halbwegs sauber. 😉 Um den Effekt noch besser zur Geltung zu bringen, habe ich in der Nachbearbeitung an ein paar Schrauben gedreht …
We were travelling by car when I saw the sun's rays breaking through the clouds like this, which always has a special appeal for me. Luckily it wasn't me at the wheel, I had my camera to hand and the windscreen was reasonably clean. 😉 To bring out the effect even better, I adjusted a few screws in post-processing ...
Smile on Saturday: SKY
More from the evening shoot. We never did see George, a local man saw a large male further upriver...we are hopeful it was him.

I tried to take some photos of the sunset from the road to the Experimental Farm in Summerland. The sunset wasn't great so I focused my attention on some Balsam root flowers. I liked the enhanced colour on the petals.
Taken a while ago when we were allowed to go further than the confines of our muncipality.

Evening Grosbeak has a Conservation Status under the IUCN of Vulnerable www.iucnredlist.org/species/22720702/131500502
Evening Grosbeak is a member of the Finches family (Fringillidae), and not as one might expect the Cardinals, Grosbeaks, and relatives (Cardinalidae). Such are the vagaries of common names. This species certainly has a heavy bill, typical of a seedeater. Males, as in this image, have a bright yellow superciliary (‘eyebrow’) and other yellowish highlights; females and juveniles are greyish. Some authorities now place this species in the genus Hesperiphona. This individual was seen in the Weaselhead Natural Area in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, in wintertime — Evening Grosbeak is a year-round resident of southern Canada and the western USA, with some birds spending the colder months in central and eastern USA.
