There Is No Substitute For Perserverance

  For some people getting up each morning, before the sun has risen, can seem like a tedious routine.  For those who wish to take photographs of nature and wildlife it is a  limitless opportunity.    
  The first photo was taken yesterday morning under overcast skies.  The clouds parted only briefly, but that was long enough to capture this scene...

Earlier this week I was watching a small creek for whatever might appear when this Eastern Bluebird flew down for a drink...

I was fortunate to capture these images of hawks hunting in various locations.  The last photo shows a hawk departing with its prey dangling from it's talons...

As always, thank you for visiting.  Stop back soon.
