Yes,the blue bird is on my finger,it's the day I released him.I found him injured a few weeks earlier,probably from another larger bird.They are scarce around here last dozen years.I installed 100 nesting boxes at work last year.Hoping to get them back in this area

Ron, your pictures are fabulous. I think my favorite of all is the moose walking out into the lake, with the mountains in the background. Thank you for sharing your talent and vision.

Fantastic! I love the Big Horn Sheep! They can be so hard to spot. We camped at Banff in 1979.....I'd love to go back.
