I made three trips in four days up Cypress Mountain looking to photograph the Gray Jays otherwise known as "Whiskey Jacks". I was fortunately enough to see other birds including a Northern Pygmy Owl but I really wanted to hand feed the Gray Jays and get some photographs.
Gray wolves were once common throughout all of North America, but were exterminated in most areas of the United States by the mid 1930s.
This male harrier flew right passed me twice while walking at Steigerwald. So close the second time that I didn't get any good shots. I was happy with my 8 frames per second because after deleting the out of focus pictures I was still left with a dozen shots that I am not ready to delete. Hard to beat this one with those yellow eyes looking into the sun.

A week after spotting 16 Great Gray Owls in the Sprague area I returned to see a total of 22 Great Grays in the same area... my highest owl total for any one given day to date...
In this picture taken just north of Sprague a Great Gray Owl was flying over a snow covered field looking for its next meal... the trees behind were far enough away to provide an interesting background.
Please press "L" as this picture is definitely best seen in the larger lightbox version for more detail and contrast.

I have a beautiful pair of gray foxes that raised 5 kits this year, the kits are gone now but the parents are still here, we have had this pair for several years coming to the backyard but this was the first year that they brought youngsters. They are very handsome animals. They can also climb trees.

Location: Following a remote dead end trail that is across the road from Kenwood Care Pine Hill Assisted Living Center - Laurel, Maryland (Howard County)
The Gray Fox is a fairly distant cousin to the Red Fox, but is said to be more reclusive and is more limited in its range. This one, however, seemed not to really care that I was there and proceeded to climb to the upper portions of a fallen tree, curl up into a ball, yawn and fall asleep. I recently photographed this one in Point Reyes, California, USA (at sunset) where I met local birders Miriam and Liam (two of the nicest people I met on my trip).

The Gray Jays on the local ski hills are not getting as many handouts with the lack of snow and lack of boarders and skiers. The pair I saw were looking for treats and I had none.
The Gray Catbird is distinctive in being a uniform, slate gray color -- set off only by a black cap and red underwing coverts.
I spent a few hours with Nature Calgary at Mallard Point. We had a lovely walk and saw many species but most were too far away for photos. I was impressed that we saw a garter snake and a Grey Partridge!
Thanks for your visits and comments! They are all greatly appreciated!

Just another in the endless cycle of trains that pulled up here and parked.
There is a reason CPKC is making the massive investment in a second parallel bridge over the Rio Grande and this is an example. There was never a moment when I was in town that I didn't observe at least two or three trains queued up side by side in Union Pacific's ex MoPac yard just north of the bridge. And this was only what I could see, not whatever was held in sidings north of the city or up at UP's big Port Laredo yard and then of course CPKC had all their own trains staged. 24 hrs a day something was crossing the bridge one way or the other and it was clear that the KCS was right in their decision to make this investment with train counts constantly maxing out the 26 per day capacity.
Seen pulling up to tied down just north of the Zaragoza Street grade crossing across from the yard office in the old MoPac station is the MEWMX 28 (manifest Englewood Yard to CPKC de México in Laredo). A pair of rebuilt UP C44ACMs (orignally GE AC4400CWs) bracket unrebuilt KCSM 4564, a 24 yr old AC440CW built as TFM 2664 and still wearing its weather beaten gray ghost paint job.
