Excellent weather and light this morning. Made it to the river around 830 AM. The Mule Deer were out in force this morning. Started the walk with a couple of tourist style shots of the deer and then completed our circuit with no interruptions for photography. Once again I drove over to the Osprey Picnic Area to check out the heron nest. It was occupied but offered no real opportunity for a decent picture. Sightings: Birds: Starlings, Osprey, Kestrel, Canada Geese, Heron, Wood Ducks, Hawk, various small unidentifiable birds (I call them flitty birds). Critters: Mule Deer Here are two photos…

March 28, 2020 – Morning

No morning outing today. Kind of cold and pretty windy. I made it out to Lake Pueblo State Park (LPSP) to walk my usual circuit around 5:45PM. There was little wind and mostly sunshine. I saw many types of birds as I will note below. None of my feathered sightings were at all cooperative in terms of allowing themselves to be photographed.The featured image on this post is an image I shot on my walk at Lake Pueblo State Park on this day in 2018. Sightings:Birds: Robin, Starling, Ducks, Canada Geese, Flicker, Red Tailed Hawk, Osprey, American Kestrel Critters: None…
