Nice blue skies on the way to work today. Looked up and saw this arrow in the sky, it was pointing the way I was going, guess I'm headed in the right direction.

"Fox Lunch"

Day 245 of 365

I was on my way home today from an unsuccessful photo excursion to the local park and saw a large bird just sitting in the grass. There was also a Swainson's Hawk up on the light post so I drove around the block, stopped to get pics of the Swainson's and continued down the road to see if the bird in the grass was still there. It was so large I thought it was a golden eagle at first. I was able to drive up really close to this guy because there was no way that he was leaving his catch, there were too many other birds around waiting for the leftovers. I sat beside this rough-legged hawk for almost half an hour while he picked away at his lunch. Needless to say, I have many photos of him. Unsuccessful trip to the park = successful trip home :)

"Storm Clouds Over Lethbridge"

Day 244 of 365

There was a pretty impressive storm in Lethbridge, Alberta this afternoon. The clouds were awesome. Apparently there was a tornado warning in the next town but I wasn't "allowed" to go storm chasing alone and I couldn't find anyone willing to go with me.

"Glass on Glass...Photo Bombed!"

Day 241 of 365

The weather outside today is cold and miserable so I decided to do some indoor photos today. The kitties weren't co-operating so I decided to do a little glass on glass experiment. Obviously the kitties got jealous because they both came running when they realized I had changed my subject matter...the black one even decided he wanted his picture taken afterall...thus the photo bomb :)

Sunflowers (Helianthus annuus) are annual plants native to the Americas, that possess a large inflorescence (flowering head). Sunflower stems can grow as high as 3m (10 ft), and the flower head can reach 30 cm (11.8 in) in diameter with large edible seeds. What is usually called the flower is actually a head (formally composite flower) of numerous florets (small flowers) crowded together. The outer florets are the sterile ray florets and can be yellow, maroon, orange, or other colors. The florets inside the circular head are called disc florets, which mature into what are traditionally called “sunflower seeds,” but are actually the fruit (an achene) of the plant. The inedible husk is the wall of the fruit and the true seed lies within the kernel.
The sunflower is the state flower of the US state of Kansas.
