Lago Torre and Glacier Torre. Similar to an earlier shot in the series but it was taken on the way back and from a point slightly lower on the mountain.
John (@canahtam on Instagram) is the founder of the #BostonPortraitMeets (organized on the Instagram account @portraitmeet) that I've been enjoying so much! Here he is shooting a portrait of Andrea (@stinsonandrea) at Saturday's epic meetup (epic because over 100 people showed up!).

An impromptu piano playing session after brunch. My girls are playing piano together here and my heart just melts enjoying the togetherness.

This hen pheasant looks pretty lonely and cold on a windy day in the Minnesota countryside as the winter wind flicks up the feathers around its head.
Though pheasants are hardy birds our winters can be deadly especially if we get serial snow storms that cover potential food sources and fills in normal ground cover that pheasants rely on for protection and warmth.
The diet of pheasants changes from the one in the summer when the DNR says they eat insects, weed seeds, corn, soybeans and other crops. During our cold and snowy months they turn more toward weed seeds and fallen grain, tree buds and small fruits left hanging on branches.
Decades ago in our farming community, farmers had smaller fields ringed by fences that allowed for a natural habitat for pheasants as several feet on each side of the fence was usually unplowed and grown over with vegetation. Some farmers would also leave several rows of corn unpicked to provide both winter food as well as cover.
Not wanting to be outdone by a mere house sparrow, this Lesser Golfinch decides to create her own confetti.
Columbia & Reading Railway's Alco S2 number 226 comes to a halt by their trackmobile which will be moved out of the siding shortly to make room for more storage cars. CORY is currently receiving 120 propane cars for storage on their line in Columbia, PA. Five cars at a time are received each morning from NS as their interchange can only hold that amount, meaning they will be operating daily until all 120 are on the property.
Reddish Egret
Egretta rufescens
Reddish egrets hunt by racing around in shallow water, hoping to scare up some fish. Much of the time they spread out their wings as they do so. Alas, when this one did it was running away from me, and much farther away. There's always next time!
Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, Brevard County, FL
Never seen the Otters doing this before as they were pulling up clumps of grass and taking them back to the Holt even though they are already lined with straw.
Taken at the BWC.
