Lots Of Color

I have a few photos that I have not shared from the fall. I need to try and share those over the next few days. I love this photo. The Painted Lady was enjoying the day, and I was loving the beauty.

Hoarding Nuthatch

It has been a while since I photographed a White-breasted Nuthatch. This one was doing some gymnastics. Gotta love them.

I read this cool little fact on the site linked above ..

If you see a White-breasted Nuthatch making lots of quick trips to and from your feeder – too many for it to be eating them all – it may be storing the seeds for later in the winter, by wedging them into furrows in the bark of nearby trees.

No surprise .. enjoy.

A Friend, Fishing

Monday morning I took an early hike along the Mimai River in Piqua. I do a morning hike like this often, but this was a special day.

The experience occured just before I shot the previous photo. As I was walking, out of the corner of my eye, I saw somehing large decend on the river. I quickly turned to my left and this is what I saw.

I was standing farily close to the river, where this Bald Eagle was about 25 yards from me. What a surprise. I expected her to fly away at any time. I had my iPhone with, so I snapped a few photos using the 3x optical zoom. Sadly, that was just not enough. I cropped a couple of them (below), but it really does not really show you how close she was .. and how glorious. What an amazing experience.
