Hi Marina. Funny thing is I did not see Daddy Owl last night. He must have been out hunting. I couldn’t see Mama Owl in her nest, either. So I called to her, and she poked the top of her head up enough to see over the edge of the hole and take a quick look at the stupid paparazzo calling to her. Then she slipped back out of view. I was satisfied with her presenting herself, walked back to the house and photographed the sunset.
I love it how you check on your feathered friends! 😉
Pretty much every night for mama and daddy owls since they are next door. I start walking down and checking on Nora more often. She’s a mile north so that’s more of a commitment to walk up and check on her.
See?! That’s what I mean! 😉😊
Spectacular skies Timothy. CAme back espesh to get a proper look at them.
Oh, here we go. Now it is behaving, Tim. Both your clouds and your beautiful swan pictures are stunning!!! The detail in both are a big WOW!!! It would seem you are seeing some unusual cloud formations as I have been. The colors in our skies lately have been phenomenal. Hope you are having a great day! xo
Oh, Tim – is that a shooting star?! Truly awe-inspiring. I feel the presence of Peter Pan and hear the whispered words: “Second star to the right and straight on ’til morning. ”
Your pictures are astonishing! Beautifully astonishing! Birdwatching is such a peaceful, quiet, and pleasant activity, you probably have great time doing that in your place.
The cranes are rather noisy and the owls hoot all night long, but I love all the bird noises. Did you get a change to listen to Cranes in the Key of C? You can hear what the cranes sound like. Also, theres a song with Coyotes.
Morning clouds at dawn
Sandhill Crane doing a swan dive @ 5:00. “Banzai!”
Sunset
A lovely crane, and bookends of the day, Tim. That sunset is particularly nice with its blue and gold, and black lace trees.
Thanks, Lavinia.
I give her a good 9.5 for form!
And you get a 10 for all three lovely images.
Thanks, Dale.
All beautiful!
Thanks, Susan.
Beautiful beginning and end to the day. And a perfect swan dive.
Those cranes have good form. Thanks, Maj & Sher.
What skies you have, Tim, and capture so well, too!
The Crane one is marvellous.
We do have beautiful skies. Thanks, Inchcock.
Love the morning sky – and great catch of the crane!
Thanks, Frank.
Gorgeous sunset
Thanks, Drew.
I would certainly have the same type of lift off waking up to such a sky and then change roles to Daddy Owl watching the sunset! 😉

Thanks, Shey. I happy you got a proper look. I don’t want to inspire any one to impropriety.
Lol!!
Crane doing a swan dive, good play on words. Your sky is so magnificent.
Swan dive @ 5 nonetheless. Thanks, Mary Jo.
That too, yes! 🙂
Beautiful swan dive. It’s a picture perfect day, morning to night.
It was clouding in the morning and clear by nightfall. Cloudy again this morning and still cloudy. No a sprinkle of precipitation. Thanks, Resa.

Thanks, Amy Rose. Interesting clouds have been moving through. No precipitation, however.
Gorgeous.

Thanks, Gabriela.
My pleasure. Hugs to everyone 🤗🤗🤗
We appreciate the hugs. The cats send purrs and kitty kisses.
We are delighted. Thank you so much. Give them our love.
Wow, beautiful photos.
Thanks, Miriam.

Sorry to say it’s an aeroplane, but it’s nice to think of it as a shooting star. Peter Pan was most certainly surfing on it. Thanks, Rebecca.
Shhh….nobody needs to know! LOL!

Love that crane!
