Lowes Canyon has become my new favorite ride.  But, trying to beat the predicted 106 degree temperatures, I had to be out the door at 6 am.  It was amazing to compare pictures with a couple of weeks ago.  The light and shadows of the morning sun make the photographs so much more interesting.

Been watching a pair of Great Horned Owls for 3 years now. I check on them when I take the dogs for a walk. They change trees each year but return to the same general area. The male has been here all winter and the female arrived this week. They are undisturbed by the dogs and I’ve only seen them fly once when a group of smaller birds started to attack.

While we are in the middle of remodeling 2 bathrooms, our hive swarmed. We didn’t have time or equipment to catch it properly but we put some honey on an old hive to lure them in. They were happy to have the honey, explored the hive, but moved on nonetheless.

The flowering trees have taken a hit this year with the cold and rain just as they started to bloom but it’s contrasted with an amazing array of hummingbirds. Never seen a year like it. #hummingbird #hummingbirds #rufoushummingbird #your_best_birds #kings_birds #birds_adored #bird #smallbird #prettybird #pocket_birds #feather_perfection #nature_cuties #bns_birds #wildlife_vision #ig_best_birds #best_birds_of_ig #birdfreaks #bird_lovers_daily
