I caught this cutie early one morning.

Sky Friday
A dramatic sunset on Lake Erie from Lakewood Park.
A beautiful summer night with pleasant temperatures and not a bit of wind.
The lake was calm and almost looked like glass.

Don't Bug Me!
This little "monster" was hanging on the wall next to my back door!
The last time I saw one of these, I was a teen. My Pop found one in the garden.
We put it in a jar and I poked it with a piece of a carrot.
Those pinchers went right through the carrot!
This is a Stag Beetle. Approximately 1.75 inches in length.

Sky Friday
Where there's heat, there's Cumulus clouds!
What started out as a crystal clear sky Monday morning,
ended up with mammoth cumulus clouds as the temperature
climbed into the 80's.

Waiting for Dinner
"Where's my waitress?"
This handsome hawk is sitting in my bird feeder apparently waiting for some unsuspecting prey.
I've never seen one get this close. Usually they're up in a nearby tree.
But, lucky for my little regulars, no one ended up being first course.

Bird Wednesday
This little House Wren is back again.
She's singing her heart out.
It's hard to imagine that such a tiny bird can sing so loud!

Dragon Cloud
A dragon head appears above the rest of the clouds in a New Mexico sunset!
I see now why southwestern fabrics and ceramics are colored the way they are.
Nice one, Bill!

Watch this fascinating video produced by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology on You Tube!
Strange behavior by exotic birds found only in the Rain Forests of New Guinea.

Coopers Hawk II
This time he caught his prey!
Glad it was a chipmunk and not one of my birds!
Oh, shut up and don't be grossed out. It's nature at work. Deal with it.

Birds In Flight
Big Mike L. in Texas has taken to "birds in flight" photography.
He captured this beautiful spread of a dove landing at his feeding station!
Nice work Mike!

Find The Bird's Nest Contest
Since nobody could find the Goodyear Blimp I thought I'd have an easy contest.
The prize in this instance is knowing you found the nest.
An additional bonus is if you lean back and squint,
you should see all kinds of animal heads ranging from
a shark, a boar and a buffalo.
Good luck seeing things!
