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!
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
A Northern Gannet just landing in the breeding colony. He has to be very careful not to land too close to the other gannets. Otherwhile he will get some trouble. I always wonder how they could find their chicks or partners in the crowd..

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.

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.
Or at least they seem to hone in on me like a heat seeking missile. So here's a quick one from the hip before I was taken out in a precision strike.

It is Eagle season on the west coast once again other than summer with the Black Bears my favourite time of year.
The US Air Force Thunderbirds doing what they do best. My first real airshow (with a good camera) and certainly will not be the last. It was an outstanding performance.

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.
