"What big eyes you have!"

Taken in Spain, this is a lovely Collared Pratincole. While it appears to be taking a drink of water, it may also be foraging for waterborne insects.

It was dawn at the Avon Pier on North Carolina's Outer Banks. The sun had not yet reached the horizon but was already casting it's orange glow as the sky began to lighten. Each morning is unique in it's own way!

Captain Paul Watson of the Sea Shepherd used this beautiful photo, taken by Nima Sarikhani at Svalbard, Norway, to go with his poem "The Passing of the Bear," which can be found here: https://www.all-creatures.org/poetry/ar-passing-bear.html

A gentle sun kissed sky this morning in Glastonbury. Have a good week everyone.

This soft pastel bird portrait is one of my more whimsical pieces from last year's portfolio. I call it 'Curious Ostrich' because I think it fits the expression on the bird's face.

This is one of my favourite wildlife photos that I've taken so far. It's a young crow from spring 2021. The crow was quite content to sit on a branch and observe their surroundings while I photographed them.
