Why Did The Goldeneye Run Across The Pond?

Like the chicken who crossed the road, I have no idea.

And this bird complicated my decision about buying a new camera. (11 photos)

A shot I almost didn’t take.

A side view showcasing the steep body angle of the flare just prior to landing.

And an unusually light colored Rough-legged Hawk that literally glowed against the dark blue sky.

I didn’t think such a huge bird could do something like this. But it did.

And trying to correct an old bad habit.

I had another post planned for this morning. I couldn’t concentrate on writing it.

For this Montana farm boy tumbleweeds symbolize the Old West. As a kid I probably watched too many Western movies.

I heard back from HWI already. (2 photos, 2 maps)
