We hiked on Sunday afternoon .... and there was a lot of snow. This Blue jay seemed to follow us for part of the hike. Teresa took the first photo, and I captured the last two.

As for the snow, we saw a couple guys running the snow covered trails in the snow (See the photo). I guess it was not that bad out there. At least the trail was plowed and the temperature was mild.

Brown And White

IMG_3246.jpeg

Yes, it’s a tree. If you have followed me for awhile, you likely know I love taking photos of trees in open fields. This shot is brown and white ... very bland, but that is what makes it a cool photo. The second show below is the same tree, but zoomed in a little to get more details of the tree.

I would sure love to know how old this tree is. It has been there for many, many years. Beautiful.

Oh Deer

The ponds and creeks are frozen over. If you look closely in that first photo you can see tracks on the frozen pond. The second and third photo reveal deer tracks. We have not seen any deer for a while but clearly they are here.

I took this photo a week ago before all of this white stuff happend. I guess there was a little snow on the ground, but nothing like what we have right now. I don’t know about you, but I am ready for spring.

How Fast?

The Mourning Dove is a beautiful bird. Yes, they can obnoxious and make a mess, but they are so peaceful. I like watching them land. They have a very different cadence to their flight when approaching to land. If you listen close, you can also hear this interesting whistling sound as they take-off and land. Its cool.

What I did not know:

  • They can fly up to 55 mph. I had no idea.
  • They generally have two doves per brood, but they can do this up to six times a year.

They are not hard to find ... they are everywhere in towns, cities, and in the woods.
