Day 112

Here is something you don’t see every day.  A tree full of sparrows. One on approach. No room on the landing branch! ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 108!

More from our quick storm… A view of the snowman in the backyard, along with a couple of downed branches.  It could have been a lot worse! One of the downed branches. All of the blossoms had just come in a couple of days before the storm… And a closeup. ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 107!

Day 097

A four photo panorama done from some not so well exposed photos, and then heavily (and dubiously) edited… The old Great Northern Engine House (Click to enlarge; BACK to return!) ~Curtis in /\/\onTana! {!-{>

Day 094: Dancing on the Lek!

Every year from April through mid-May the Benton Lake National Wildlife Refuge draws for entrance to the photography blind by one of the Sharp-tailed Grouse leks, or breeding dance grounds. This year Friend Walter and I got to go the first morning. You have to be in the blind an hour before sunrise, and can’t […]
