MESQUITE FLAT SAND DUNES

DEATH VALLEY CALIFORNIA

Back into the archives and just picked this out at random.

 

Better viewed large and thank you for your favourite.

A heavyset finch of northern coniferous forests, the Evening Grosbeak adds a splash of color to winter bird feeders every few years, when large flocks depart their northern breeding grounds en masse to seek food to the south. The yellow-bodied, dusky-headed male has an imposing air thanks to his massive bill and fierce eyebrow stripe. The female is more subtly marked, with golden highlights on her soft gray plumage. This declining species is becoming uncommon, particularly in the eastern United States.

"In the mid-1800s, Evening Grosbeaks were uncommon to rare east of the Rockies, but then they began moving eastward with each winter migration, reaching Rhode Island in the winter of 1910–1911. By the 1920s they were considered a regular winter visitor in New England. This eastward expansion may be related to the growing number of ornamental box elders, which provide a steady food supply for the grosbeaks."

A beautiful evening in early summer. The traffic noise has stopped and nature can unfold its magic.

The Golden Hour begins near a farm on Noon Road.

On a sunny July evening in Montacute. The reflections in the still water of the pond were very attractive.

Morning light welcomes this beautiful female Evening Grosbeak out of the forest.

Bringing down the white balance about 1000 degrees from daylight makes this evening view of mix of lighting (sunset, blue hour, and city lights on the clouds, quite magical I think.

The sunset light shining on the Hardy Boys section of our bookshelf looked so beautiful that I felt drawn to try to capture what I saw.

The pink and blue sky descends softly into the water while the man and his god (whoops, I mean dog!) are lost in their thoughts and their affection for each other.

Lyrics:

 

All the colors of the evening sun

On your sweet face

Take me home

 

Like the fullness of the midnight moon

Pure and simple

I love you

 

So few hold the hand of faithfulness

I can't let up

Mad for you

 

It is good to find a lover in this life

Take her to the waters and never ever leave her out to dry

But my father always sang this chord:

Set your eyes upon the Lord

Set your eyes upon the Lord

 

Oh the feeling when I kissed your mouth

Middle of night

Such relief

 

Ain't no currency to buy your heart

Pure as gold is

What reward
