Trying to get used to the autofocus on the new camera body and some test shots with an older but new to me lens. Fortunate to have several Eastern Bluebirds overwinter here. I don't know why but I think they are beautiful birds, and they certainly know where there is plenty of food, water and shelter...

Had an amazing opportunity to watch some Short-Eared owls hunt yesterday, my fingers were barely working. Many shots missed due to frozen fingers not finding and firing buttons. My friend got frostbite. It was brutally cold, did I say "brutally". I will be posting more when I have the energy and time. Hope you don't get bored of the owl images... I don't post much to other forums really, so... thanks for looking, blessings to you all and stay warm.

Just took a few images.

Had a couple hours on a work trip to take a few photos. These photos are common, but I wanted to shoot it anyway. Timing did not allow me the opportunity to shoot the sunset at the pier. That is ok, someday, however. Life is good, positive vibes only, cheers and Happy Thanksgiving.

The Snowy Owls are back in WI. This is from January of 2025. I sure hope to get back out to capture these beautiful owls.

Earlier this year I had the opportunity to make the trip north of Duluth, MN to photograph the Great Grey Owl. I made the trip once prior but only saw one owl right after dark and the image was, well... it just sucked. In the 3.5 days up there I must have photographed over a dozen. It was cold, but magical and I met other passionate photographers and made new friends. Here are a few of the images I captured. I likely have several hundreds more that I most likely will not look at because I get busy and then I realize its more fun being outside in nature shooting.
