This was taken at my workplace Downtown LA looking towards the Hollywood Hills.

My Wife and I went to the Los Angeles Zoo and the best photos of the day were in the parking catching a Red Shouldered Hawk catching an afternoon snack.

Yes, the eastern sky was cloudless. The clouds in the picture were the tail end of Hurricane Fabio moving northwest up the coast.

Thanks everyone for your kind words, I'm glad you enjoyed my photos.

I went for a walk at the lake near my house thinking that there might be a nice sunset. It didn't seem to be what I was hoping for so I started home. I remembered reading not to give up on a sunset so I went back to give it a few more minutes. I'm glad I waited!!!

6:56pm


16 minutes later

Very nice images! Decided to beat the rush in to work, huh? :D[/quote]

Yes if I leave 20 minutes later I sit in traffic an extra hour! I have extra time here to rest or look at Ugly Hedgehog.

I watched the sunrise developing in my rearview mirror on my commute in this morning, so I ran up to the roof at work to get a few shots.

Out for a walk and waiting for my wife to finish a conversation I noticed a few humming birds near by. Here are a few (Out of the 20 or so I took).

Dropped my wife off at the hair dresser and went to check out a small park in Chino, Ca.

My BIF photo passing over from nearby Chino Airport (flying away like most of my BIF photos)


One of the ponds had a plant growth that looked as if you could walk on it.

These are shot out my office door from my desk.

This was demo for an upcoming opera where I work. It was very hard to get the proper exposure with a limited amount of shot opportunities.

I spent the morning watching this guy practicing his craft.

Thanks, the 3rd is my favororite, I love the eyes. And thanks for the link to your owls.



To tell the truth I never thought of video, they were very still while I was there, we just watched each other.

This is two months of watching a horned owl nest summed up in 5 photos.

The nest I have been watching had a few more eyes staring back today!

Four eyes


Then five eyes


Then six eyes


The happy family

Not one of mine but seems to fit here.
