Daddy Owl blowing in the sunset.
Crows play in pink.
Sparse clouds over the Sandias.
Mama Owl is still “tufting” it out.

Cool effect with the light and the washboard clouds – almost looks like a pink swarm.
Pink swarm of clouds. Thanks, Brian.
GRANDMA SAYS: Washboard clouds in the Sky? Be quick to hang your wash to dry!
Maybe that’s why the second owl does hide!
Out here it would be nice if washboard clouds indicated rain because we need rain. Mama Owl isn’t hiding, she’s sitting on eggs. Thanks, Halbabera.
Such beautiful skies, river and mountains along with the bosque and its inhabitants. Mama Owl’s chicks should be hatching soon. I enjoyed all these photos, Tim, they are very peaceful.
Thanks, Lavinia.
Oh that’s pretty
Thanks, Shey.
7 sighs, 7 smiles and a zillion reasons not to want to leave this page! Here I’ll stay! Gracias! 🙏
Aw. You are welcome. I’m so happy you can enjoy our skies, Marina. Thanks for dropping by.
Well, thank YOU, my friend. Your page is open like a window to joy.
Beautiful clouds, I like the washboard cloud the most. Everything OK with the owls so far 🙂
The owls are doing great. Thanks, picpholio.
Love these. Such an eclectic mix!
Thanks, Dale.
Cloud-tastic!
All the images here are superb, however, ‘Crows play in pink’ is a masterpiece. Thank you, Timothy.:)
Thanks, Janet. Artists will like that one the best. I like it best of the set.
Your photos are amazing. Such beautiful subjects. I adore the Owls.
Thanks, Holly.
Welcome Tim!
I never get bored with photos of those gorgeous skies. Obviously, you don’t either. Thanks!!
Hi Mary Jo. When people who say “if you’ve seen one sunset you’ve seen them all!” and “Why do you take photos of the Sandias every day? They always look the same!” I say “What’s a matta you?” It’s amazing how people with eyes that one presumes they can see with are blind.
You guys certainly get some amazing skies, great photos, Tim!
Thanks, Tiffany.
Beautiful shot!
Thanks, Al. I see you got some nice sunsets. I’m going to pop over a take a closer look.
Spectacular shots, Tim!
Wow, the Cottonwoods are gorgeous!
Of course “tufting it out” got me laughing, and now I can’t stop! Thanks !!!!!!
Happy to make you laugh. We all need to laugh these days. Thanks, Resa.
Beautiful pictures Timothy and I love the title of this post.
Thanks, Gabriela.
Oh how I enjoyed every one of these NM moments, Timothy. I’ve been seeing that planet every dawn lately, am glad to know it is Jupiter.
Thanks, Jet. You can also see Saturn above Jupiter. It’s a little to the right from where I see it.
Thanks for the planet IDing, Timothy. I like knowing them but sometimes at dawn I am slow to look them up.
I know what you mean.
Amazing…just amazing.
Thanks, Vinny.
