A photo portrait of a brown brindle bully-type dog with white on her toes, chest, and a little streak above her nose. She is wearing a mauve colored harness and is sitting atop a very large stone in a forested area, the blurred backdrop is a canopy of trees in vivid greens and yellows. The dog is looking at the viewer and her big, pink tongue is hangig out of her open mouth in a pant.
Someday, I hope to photograph more dogs than my own. In the meantime, my dogs are as much a part of my photography journey as my camera is. Here's Moxie!

A Barred Owl is in isolation on a tree stump. Behind the owl is a winter scape of snow and brown foliage.
One of our lovely Barred Owls graced me with its presence this morning.

An immature Bald Eagle's body is shifted away from the camera, but it's head is looking back.
The main #BirdOfTheDay theme today is #PowerPose. My previous two posts were the alternative theme. This is an immature Bald Eagle looking at me like I was nothing.

A fallen (already!) pink Kawazu Sakura blossom in a puddle by Sumida River this morning. The light sort of dances around it in the water, making it look as if it were floating through some otherworldly space where falling isnβt necessarily a bad thing.

A Dark Eyed Junco is perched on a tree limb, surrounded by branches. The scene is illuminated with soft lighting.

Great thing about the Sony 300mmF2.8+ 2x Converter is how light it is! Compared to the Sony 200-600mm lens it is so much easier to handle and carry (I'm getting old!)

A photo of my sitting on the edge of a cliff near Sedona, Arizona. Two tall, red, rocky cliffs bracket a narrow vertical gap with green trees down below. The glow of the Sun illuminate the bowl shape with golden light. Additional cliffs and bright sunny skies can be seen in the distance.

A Coyote stands in the snow and looks towards the camera.
Coyote mating season is in full swing so our local pair have been out & about lately. This morning they groomed themselves during a light snowfall, then were concerned about a noise & promptly left.

There were a handful of these lovely Habronattus notialis lads spooding around this afternoon. They please me.

An Osprey flies with a fish in its grasp. Water spray flies off of the fish and bird. Blurred tree limbs are in the background.
For today's #BirdOfTheDay theme of #FeedingTime I have this Osprey that just picked up an early lunch.

It is nearly single digits here in Kentucky this morning, missing the warm days of adventures with my pup Moxie!
I'm hoping we can both grow as a team this year. π

A photograph of a red panda, close up to the viewer, with their head tilted downward and their paw lifted on the left-hand side. Their mouth is open and griped in their paw is a green shoot of bamboo with thin branches and long, thick vivid green leaves. The red panda is gripping the thin branch and they are biting down on the bamboo leaves. Their head and paw are mostly in-frame with the lower body being cut off. The background is more vivid green bamboo leaves.
Just a wee little red panda having a snack!

Southern Resident orcas are back inland Puget Sound!
They were audible on the hydrophones overnight & currently orcas, presumably them, are moving down the Sound. Good luck! Please share sightings.
