Nature at its very best ~

So beautiful it looks like a carving~

Goldeneye drake

Hard to tell from this perspective that this is a bird that is 17 inches tall.

Pileated woodpecker outside my window.

I've spent the better part of 3 summers trying to get a good shot of this guy; still don't have the one I'm looking for!

This is one magnificent bird, for sure. We have a pair; a very elusive pair, unfortunately.

When I get shots like these, I am always reminded of how glorious it is to live in the country. How sad it would be to missing out on daily life of this nature (pun intended)!
