Took my daughter back over to Ellensburg this morning and came home through Yakima and White Pass. Wow, no traffic at all going that way. I was able to stop and shoot the bighorn sheep that were coming down out of the hills. They are not feeding them at the feeding stations yet, probably not...

Nice hummer shots. The flash really brought out the irridescence of their feathers.
The Anna's hummingbirds are the ones that will winter over around here. They've been expanding their winter range north for quite a while now. They get most of their food by eating insects and the nectar we...

We get snow and most times it's followed up by a nice clear, very cold day. A few different shots of Mt Rainier from today.
The morning view on my walk ...
Wall to wall snow all the way to the mountain...
Now that looks cold...

I'm sure the big dump of snow we got here around Eatonville has been a shock to the animals too (over 22 inches). Here's a few of the critters that were roaming around today under the blue, but very cold skies.
Caught this stellars jay through my living room window in the feeder...
She...

From some reading I've done lately it looks like even when the nectar is out in the winter it's not a big part of their diet. They live off insects and will actually pick bugs out of the bark of trees this time of year.

Danged things are noisy too, always sqwaking and squealing outside my window when I want to sleep in.
-
Nice work. I keep looking back at that first one for a salmon to swim through.
-
Leaf her alone Bob... she's posting pictures and that's what counts. lol
-
Nice series of shots Janice, especially getting creative with something overlooked by most. I need to get out tomorrow to the local falls that should be iced up again, but this time I'm taking my old style golf shoes with me so I can get back up the hill.
-
I really like these with the exception of the light post in the second one. I think it takes away from a strong image that would have gone along with the rest of this series that had no foreground elements in front of the signs. On it's own it's a good picture, but with the series it breaks what...

Today he was trying to catch snowflakes on his toungue...
But when he turned his head the red would start to flash in the flat non-directional light of the snow storm.

We keep the feeder up all year long. Anna's hummingbirds have been expanding their year-long range farther north. We've had them around year round for about the last 6 years or so now. This morning there were three out there fighting over the feeder. When they settle down for a bit and if I'n...

This Anna's Hummingbird was running out of branches with no snow on them in the front yard earlier today...

I missed this one while I was gone hunting. Nicely done capturing the whites and darks in the sun.

The early deer season must be over, lol. Three blacktail bucks were courting a doe this morning.
The youngster who really seemed more interested in the commotion the other two bucks were causing instead of the doe.
The young challenger who is sporting only half a rack...
Only...

I'd look at warming the image a bit and adding some contrast.
-
Get up and step back from the computer screen, it has a much more relaxing look from farther back. Almost an impressionist painting look to it. Nice.
-
Dang, it's tough to get these guys early in the season. Later after they've been hunted they will hold and let you get close, right now they take off running as soon as you spot them.
Then they take off into the sun...

I think this shot of the barn is a bit nicer, but the angle didn't let me get the moon in. There was a lot of burning in fields and a prescribed burn up in the mountains behind me that caused some intetresting color castes to the light.
