Even though the air temperature was cooler than yesterday, the lack of a breeze and some unobstructed sunshine made it feel a lot warmer this morning. This did not seem to impress my feathered friends – very few of whom wanted to be on the Internet today. Today’s featured image is one of many Canada Geese who were very vocally flying around. Pictured here is a Red-tailed Hawk that left shortly after I grabbed this shot. Mother Great Horned Owl was nestled well down in her nest and dad was nowhere to be found.
