All the snow has gone and the weather is back into the +20's (C). Is it too much to hope that we just experienced a very short winter?
The raptors are still hanging around. Hopefully the Rough-legged hawks will stay through to spring.
These two are the palest that I have seen. I am not sure if it a winter plumage, or a sign of young birds.
Once again I was caught napping and did not get the focus/shutter speed right.
Daphne is enjoying the minimal snow and mud. I do not have to leash her since she seldom leaves my side. If there is a rabbit, she will run about 50 ft and then come back.
She has a LOT of energy!
Great pictures as always...and Albert is having a warm fall overall!!

Your photos are fabulous Ian. Snowed here last night for the first time. Winter is here. B
ReplyDeleteLovely pics of those hawks you took.
ReplyDeleteA rough collie is always so impressive looking, but I am grateful for the relatively short coat of Saint the Good Shepherd (she carries enough dirt in on her coat as it is).
