Happily married singer, songwriter, guitar player, and birder. I take a lot of pictures, but I'm not really a photographer. A few things I believe in: Peace, music, birds, love, and myself. Please, no DM'S
Thanks for stopping by!
Peace.......period.

Hope you're having a happy #Caturday! Ella is upset because the ground was covered with ice when I took her outside. She kept shaking her paws, and came back inside fairly quickly. I think she blames me, or at least expects me to fix it.🤣 #Cats #CatSky #CatsOfBlueSky #HedgeWatch #Photography

The pattern seems to be holding. If I see a Sumac that still has berries, there will be Robins. Makes me smile. American Robin. Peace! #bieds #birding #robin #americanrobin #thrush #peace

I had to dig deep in the archive to find this red-breasted Blyth's tragopan (Tragopan blythii) taken at Woodland Park Zoo. #BirdOfTheDay #Red #Birds #Photography #EastCoastKin

This may be a little too graphic for some. Great Egret on the hunt. Right place, right time for the photographer (me). Wrong place wrong time for the Gopher. Peace! #birds #birding #egret #gopher #heronsofbluesky #peace #hunter #prey

A group of Cormorants were sharing the tree with the Kingfisher. I'm guessing they were planning to roost there. Peace! #birds #birding #cormorants #roost #peace
