Spring has Sprung!

Signs of life are everywhere! Movement from the ground to the sky are inching, crawling and flying!



My first caterpillar of the year inched across a trail!







A small snake made its way across my path!







Sandhill Cranes migrating...



...made a pitstop at the prairie...My favorite place!







A Grackle taking a bath!









And some Meadowlarks displaying for a lucky lady! Look how huge their bellies get! Sorry for the lack of quality. This was taken thru my car window!

  5. The prairie shot is my favorite. I appreciate how you hid the high line structure. You have something very special. A Navajo medicine man told me once in all things there is a living spirit. It's a good thing that you do.

  7. We had a flock of Sand Hill Cranes fly over "Logues Way" in the Black Hammock in FL. I love to listen to them.

  8. Trying to catch up after photographing birds in Florida last week. Good shots, I also got some Sandhill Cranes last week, one on a nest with two eggs.

    I like your car pod you made. Last year during the whitetail rut I actually set up a small tripod on the passenger seat to be able to shoot video while it was raining. It worked well but I may need to try out your set up.

    Happy shooting, Brad
