Reflections from the 2016 Snowmass balloon festival.
I'm starting another big project so I apologize in advance for not keeping up with my contacts....I really do appreciate all the comments/invites and support!

"You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon
Shine on you crazy diamond
Threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light
Shine on you crazy diamond
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision
Rode on the steel breeze
Come on you raver, you seer of visions
Come on you painter, you piper, you prisoner, and shine!"
Great Blue Heron
From Audubon : Widespread and familiar (though often called "crane"), the largest heron in North America. Often seen standing silently along inland rivers or lakeshores, or flying high overhead, with slow wingbeats, its head hunched back onto its shoulders. Highly adaptable, it thrives around all kinds of waters from subtropical mangrove swamps to desert rivers to the coastline of southern Alaska. With its variable diet it is able to spend the winter farther north than most herons, even in areas where most waters freeze. A form in southern Florida (called "Great White Heron") is slightly larger and entirely white.
Explore Dec 7/ 07 Mute Swans, landing, early morning light. They actually run across the water as they land which differs from most that ski across the water until they stop. Larger is better www.pbase.com/woody/image/89992210/original.jpg IMG_2186
Although the last weeks offered quite poor conditions for hiking and photography at least one day of the weekends provided a little bit of sunshine. Costedt, Ostwestfalen, Germany
Topiary at Levens Hall, South Lakeland, Cumbria.
Levens Hall is a Manor House dating back to around 1350, though much is Elizabethan.
Levens has a celebrated and large Topiary Garden, created in 1689-1712 by the French gardener Guillaume Beaumont. He was the gardener of King James II and the designer of the grounds at Hampton Court.
After over 300 years, these gardens have survived remarkably intact. Levens Hall Topiary Garden is the world's finest, oldest and most extensive example, as confirmed by the Guinness Book of Records.
Topiary is an ancient art with Roman origins (Topiarius). It involves precision-trimming trees into strange and beautiful shapes. These living sculptures use slow-growing and long-living Golden Yew and Box trees. It takes months to trim!
These two trees look like alien invaders, just two of hundreds of examples in this inspirational garden.
World Topiary Day is 12 May every year.
Esta garceta se dejó fotografiar a placer mientras se dedica a la captura de peces en aguas marinas poco profundas. Cuando está pescando a “la espera” se le observa prácticamente inmóvil, mirando fijamente la superficie del agua. Si una presa se deja ver en su campo de acción estira el cuello con mucha rapidez, lanzando el pico con sumo acierto y atrapando en este caso dos piezas.
Un prodigio de precisión.
Garceta común (Egretta garzetta)
Little egret
Garcia Cande/ Garcina en la lengua madre.
I guess out of the two landing photos this is my favorite even though no eye contact. I love the shape of it's wings and intensity on making the landing.
So on Monday afternoon I get a text that 11Z with the #1067 was coming out of Binghamton that night. We were well out on the Pokey and we were on a mission to photograph Red Bud and that's where we stayed.I don't know what kind of problems he had and I know 1 11Z got around him, maybe 2. We were up this morning and headed North catching them at Compton and followed him to Shenandoah and the crew would not be called until 1350, they just got out at 1530 and will be at Island Ford for 1 maybe 2. Here they are splitting the CPL's at Summit. Precision Railroading at its finest.

I purposely left the gannets in the right hand corner in the photo. Every inch of space is at a premium at this nesting site. It takes much precision to find a small space in which to land.

A patient ambush predator, the ‘auku’u, or black-crowned night heron, motionlessly anticipates the perfect moment for a precision strike then catches a fresh cichlid. The nictitating membrane that protects the eye during the strike and prey handling is still retracting as the bird swallows the fish head first. The ‘auku’u is a well-adapted to a variety of aquatic habitats, from protected upland watersheds to urban drainage channels to ocean side tide pools. This indigenous sub-species of night heron is generally diurnal in Hawaii. The red eyes are stunningly captivating!
