Find me on:
a group of about 70ish golden plovers in a field this morning, i missed them taking off because i turned my back to change a battery & they were up!
A medium-sized plover with a distinctive gold and black summer plumage. In winter the black in replaced by buff and white. They typically stand upright and run in short bursts. Very wary on the breeding grounds. In winter they form large flocks which fly in fairly tight formation with rapid, twinkling wingbeats.
The Rose Breasted Grosbeak looks like he is off daydreaming at the feeder.
I hope you know how much I appreciate your visit here to my page and any comments that you may leave. I may not get back to you all right away but I will try to as quick as I am able.
Cranes flocking at Bitter Lake National Wildlife Refuge starting to take off. This is probably the only open water near Roswell NM for 50 miles in any direction.
Ladybird taking off.
Haven't taken a decent ladybird shot for a while, so quite pleased with this one.
Usually it takes hours of trying to get a shot like this, but this one worked first time! :D
The yellow background is just a group of yellow flowers (not been edited)
It's going to be a scorcher here today. Thought I'd post a nice refreshing shot for those who need a break from the heat.

Running a day late due to unloading delays at Chirk (thanks for the info Rich), 60076 heads south past Stokesay Castle with 6V54 to Baglan Bay, South Wales to pick up more logs to make kitchens and the like, Sunday 31.5.15
Logged Off......? It was sunny a few minutes either side of it coming through!
Around a curve in the forest about 8 km or so up we came upon three roughed grouse. Very dark, but if I can get any shot of these birds, I feel lucky!

On our last morning in Anchorage, we decided to pass some time planespotting out at Point Woronzof, before we returned the rental car. I was pschyed to see a Coast Guard HC-130J squeeze in between the parade of 747s and depart off runway 33, presumably returning home to the air station on Kodiak Island.
Based on where this and a similar plane were parked on the ramp, I suspect they were ferried to Anchorage for heavy maintenance that couldn't be done at Kodiak.
Skaneateles Car Show scene at Clift Park. I didn't like the cluttered back ground with the cars parked on the street, the Sherwood Inn there, and the Lady parked on the bench. In a way, kinda like it thouigh, shot wide open.
Metra UP West #37 races out of Downtown Chicago with a former Amtrak F59PHI leading, still wearing the Surfliner scheme, refreshed by Metra. I saw these units for the first time years ago in California, but didn’t have a good camera until they made it to Chicagoland (5/9/25).
