The Beauty of Birds Part 4

This post contains some of my favorite bird photos Jake got over the years. 


A Ring-billed Gull, either taking off or landing. When I look at this picture, I see angel wings. It is one of those times when everything came together to create a perfect shot.




The male Eastern Bluebird is working hard to help keep his family fed.




Was this a lucky shot or skill? I know that Jake had a lot of skill as a photographer, but this was absolutely perfect timing.



A friend of mine had called to say that her blooming Apricot tree was filled with birds. Jake and I went there and were thrilled to find many warblers in that tree. Here is just one of Jake's many shots, this being a Cape May Warbler.



Forgive me, please. I know this is not a bird, but because I'm featuring favourites, this one had to be here. 



Again, not a bird, but probably one of those moments that will stay with me forever. We were hiking at the Pembina Valley, came around a bend in the trail and were greeted with this sight. Bambi was motionless, except that we could see his sides moving just a little as he breathed.
Multiple pictures and a hushed moment to absorb the beauty of this moment and on we went.



Jake had so many interests and observing the stars was definitely one of them. This is a long exposure, showing how the earth rotates.

 

The above photo is a teaser for what will come in the next blog post.
Be sure to check back in a few days.

To God be the Glory!
