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!
An American Bald Eagle shows off its fishing skill - sometimes swift but this time with a delicate snatch.
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

This Grey Butcherbird prepared the dead branch by stripping off its bark to reveal nutritious morsels.

Northern Gannet

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!
Those impressive talons are on display as the owl lands on the next perch to be used to resume hunting after it came up empty on the last attempt.
