As I drove north along Montana’s Highway 200 in late summer, a small island nestled on the waters of the Cabinet Gorge Reservoir caught my eye. This little gem shone brightly amid the forested slopes and distant mountain peaks. Overhead, a flock of geese swept past in near-perfect formation, their graceful flight adding life to an already magical scene.
The Cabinet Gorge Reservoir winds through the rugged Clark Fork Valley of western Montana. It is a narrow, forest-lined channel that eventually merges with Idaho’s magnificent Lake Pend Oreille to the northwest. To me, this wilderness felt timeless—a landscape framed by the steep, brooding walls of the Cabinet Mountains and an ancient gorge shaped by glaciers long ago.

My crow friend is comfortable enough to have a snooze on my chair less than a metre away from where I sit reading my book.
A couple days ago, I posted a photo of a female snowy owl preening. She stayed on the post for over well over an hour relaxing, scanning for prey, preening, and having a quick nap (and revealing its white, feathery eyelids). Then the owl flew away. This is the best frame from the short sequence before it disappeared out of my view. I was photographing from inside my vehicle, so fairly limited in tracking it as it flew down low to the ground, out over a field, and eventually perching on a willow that was well out of camera range.
I took a few images while the snowy was on the post, but the real enjoyment was in watching and learning, and enjoying her beauty.
Though it looks like this osprey is coming in for a landing, it's a young bird just figuring out how to use his/her wings. There was no need to travel far into the back woods to find this nest as it is on top of a light pole in the middle of a Trader Joe's parking lot! It's sibling had already figure out the secrets of flight and made its way to a nearby light pole.

One from my archives of a Great Grey Owl ...note the nictating ( second eyelid) , an instinctive reaction when there is a possibility of eye injury as when landing on a perch...
Such majestic birds, we were very fortunate to encounter this African Harrier-Hawk close to the road within the Kruger National Park on safari with Wild Wings Safaris. Awesome.
well, i have such poor equipment to photograph birds, that i was quite happy with these photos. Autofocus is sooo slow in my camera i have to do all manual focus, so i was concentrating like hell to be able to even catch these moments the way i could.
i will invest in something more serious, but didn't decided yet what i will go with.. but i can't wait to have the before...after photos :)
In celebration of the little bit of rain we've had this week, this is a shot from the last evening rain. Parking lot outside Buffalo Wild Wings. The blue is actually Aspen Dental, so you can go get the wings cleaned out of your teeth.
Racing across the wild lake
Wings they fly, wings they make
Their way to a place, well known
Where every year they are blown
Over land, past the trees
Wings they spread, ride on the breeze
Across the skies of blue and grey
Flying, flying , far away
This Bald Eagle looks like he means business and by the bloodstains on his head feathers, I think he is serious about it.
Happy 70 months to Mindy & I! After work, decided to eat at Buffalo Wild Wings since their wings are half off. Gotta love that mango habanero. Pretty crazy, but in about two months, it's going to be six years for us which is really crazy.

Parenting is not just hormone and pheromone induced nature’s need of procreating, making nest, laying eggs, incubating and then feeding the offsprings to survive and grow. It’s about making them self sufficient for its own survival, food, shelter and making next generation. Birds do it as well as any other species. The Adult Bee Eater refused to share the bee with the Juvenile, almost as big and active as an adult. It wanted it to catch its own meal now onwards and in the end ultimately succeeded in making the Juvenile get its own snacks.
Nature perpetuates.
