At Bosque del Apache, snow geese flying into one of the flooded fields where they spend the night before flying away at sunrise to feed. The cottonwoods make a gorgeous backdrop as everything is bathed in the light of the setting sun. #birds #nature #birding #CanonR5MarkII #photography #NewMexico

A first for me, a Northern Harrier searching for prey at the Bosque in New Mexico. There are quite a lot of them that hunt at the Bosque.

You never know, that small feather might just land very lightly on you someday. Snow geese leaving a little something behind as they fly away.

A pair of sandhill cranes crossing the road… instead of flying, they decided to walk around a half mile 🤓

A very early morning to watch the fly away of the Sandhill cranes and snow geese. The Bosque is a special magical place and the early morning pitch black darkness listening to the geese and cranes are truly magical

Just a few of the too numerous to count sandhill cranes feeding in the fields at Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge in New Mexico.

A series of one of the cedar waxwings as it plucked one of the small crab apples and proceeded to eat it whole. They descended on this tree in large numbers, along with the robins.

This morning there was a large flock of cedar waxwings, they then proceeded to go on a feeding frenzy. It was the first time seeing them in my yard.

You can see the waxy red secretions on the tips of the feathers of this cedar waxwing in this photo I took this morning!!

Mushrooms and more mushrooms… according to Google ID, they are called Lawyer’s cap. They were all over this patch of moss and grass in the woods where I was taking a walk.

A yellow shafted Northern Flicker. He was way up high, it wasn’t easy to get a good photo of him.

Would not have seen this great blue heron if it hadn’t moved. It was high up in this pine tree.

The goldfinches weren’t happy about sharing the feeder tray with the dark eyed junco, but they worked it out and everyone got to eat their fill.

The juncos are back in town for the season. Saw three with their suitcases 🧳 in my yard getting ready to move in for the season.
