The Great Blue Heron with a wingspan up to six and a half feet is the largest heron in North America. There is a good chance you will spot one near small bodies of water, in wetlands or on the weedy shores of a lake. During the springtime in Minnesota small farm ponds are another location they inhabit. They hunt by stalking, sometimes standing absolutely still before making a quick thrust with their bill to capture their prey.
We saw several Kestrels and a Buzzard on a short walk this morning but mostly too far off to photograph. This one landed on a tree top not too far away - but with it's back towards me - I finally got a couple of shots when it decided to fly off.
Lift off.
Downy Woodpecker, June 13, 2020, Rondeau Provincial Park, Ontario, Canada.
Lucky timing on this shot, of course if you take enough images you will get a few like this.
Dryobates pubescens
Downy Woodpeckers have been discovered nesting inside the walls of buildings.
Just spent 5 days at Greenland on a photo workshop. Most of the time spent in Ilulissat. Also made a day trip by boat to the Eqli glacier. Showing the different textures and tones of ice broken off from the glacier.

sometimes one just has to get away from the noises of everything else.
Paper and pen.

Fire.
Dogs for company.
Watching deer feed, listening to coyotes, Barred Owls, and watching fireflies.
I fell sound asleep before the Milky Way appeared but that is OK.
We slept soundly and until way after dawn broke.
PS, this is the second time I've ever camped.
So many beautiful cherry trees here. It's a tough time to have to work full time and yearn to be outside. I ran outside with my camera as soon as I was aloud.

Hole In The Wall Beach - Davenport California
The rain held off most of the day so I headed south to Santa Cruz. I looked at a few beaches along highway 1 but the sky didn't look all that promising so I continued north. I ended up running into Jim Patterson at Bonny Doon. We walked down and had a look at the area and decided Hole In The Wall would be a better spot for sunset. We made our way down the trail, across the creak that flowed into the ocean and down the beach. Only being on this beach once before, I was open to setup anywhere, but Jim found a nice rock ledge to shoot from. It didn't take long for me to see that this "crack" had a lot of interesting movement in the water so I unpacked my gear, cleaned my filters and setup at the edge.
I have a feeling I ended up in the spot Jim was eyeballing (sorry Jim) due to the fact that he was "running around like a chicken with it's head cut off" (his own words) We both ended up with almost the exact composition but its always interesting to see how the details change from person to person, camera to camera.
Thanks Jim for the tour of the beach, it was nice meeting up with you.

I stopped to take some pictures but, the only one I really liked at this location was the one I took of my truck. Go figure.
Tourism reaches its nadir in mid-winter Saint John. And 2015 was no ordinary winter around the Maritimes-----record snowfalls all over the place.
Thanks for taking a look at ultrachool's photostream!
I'm uploading this at three in the morning because that's just what college is. I love college so far - everything about it. I love my school, I love everyone I've met, my classes, the clubs, campus. It's all so new and exciting and amazing, and I feel like this is my home away from home already. I was blessed with a dorm room prime for decorating, too, hence all the prints in the background. I can't wait to add more!
Wisconsin & Southern train L595 switches sand loads from Utley into their train from Oshkosh at Brandon, as local farmers get their corn to market before the mild autumn weather gets a more normal chill to it.

Few things clear the head better than a brisk morning walk in the crisp winter air.

I might just try having a digital holiday for a few days to be present in the moment. I could even hug a tree. Yule log off too maybe? Ho ho ho.
