Little One

My venture into bird photography on the trail continues. Success is small at this point, as is this little Downy woodpecker I was fortunate enough at  getting a clean snap. Black and white processing offered a little more detail in an otherwise rather drab setting.

Abandoned

A Sunday Scene

“Woe to him who builds his house by unjust gain, setting his nest on high to escape the clutches of ruin! Habakkuk 2:9 NIV

Singing Frozen

My Friday Friend is this song sparrow spotted on the frozen waters of the old Erie Canal bed on the Zoar Valley Trail. I can’t help but think he’s chirping to the tune to Frozen.

Friday Friend – Fall Killdeer

Two things are unusual here. I didn’t remember ever seeing a killdeer in the fall, nor do i ever remember seeing one by the water. They are the “Land Plover”. It may be more habits, mine and theirs. Anyway, they were quite entertaining.

Mourning Dove Eggs

Outside of my wife’s first grade classroom, Mourning Doves set up in last year’s Robin’s nest. I’ve captured a few shots for her students to follow their progress on her classroom Smart Board.

On the Bucket (list)

In response to The Daily Post’s weekly photo challenge: “(Extra)ordinary.”

I found this Bird house in traveling through Central New York to be pretty ordinary. Its perch on the bucket list is extra-ordinary. Enjoy, have a great week.
