When we left the house the temperature was in the teens, 14 or so. We headed to the creek to let the dogs out to play for a short time. It was really to cold out to let the dogs out of the warm truck for to long. These are some of the shots I got of the icy creek, It was really to cold to hold the camera still. I am a wimp when it comes to the cold! It did reach 25 degrees today in the sunshine!!

To see what he can see. This mule deer buck really was curious as to what I was doing and he liked the tree in which he was using for security!

Some days the Mule Deer show themselves, while other days they do not. Saturday was a day to show themselves, and it just happened to be a snowy day here in the high desert. The buck was funny, he did hide his head, or tried the best he could at first. After some time of just watching him, snapping some photographs he must of figured I was ok and not there to hurt him for he came out in the open long enough for me to get quite a few shots, adjusting my lens as I went. With his breath seen and the one antler looking like it does.... he is unique looking! The does and the older fawn stopped long enough for me to snap some photographs as well. For those new to Mule Deer. The Mule Deer are very big deer. They are called Mule Deer due to their very large ears.

Many people come here in good weather to camp, boat, fish on and on. Many people do not get to see what we get to see in the winter. We chose where we wanted to go, and headed out. We were told of some snow but the weather channel is not real pacific here. A little snow mixed in with rain. Ok whatever what is new?? Than we got down into the canyon..... Saturday it just dumped on us! Snow is no big deal, it is the black ice we worry about!! More about my getting wildlife photography here in Oregon at my web site..... What we wont do to get that photo!!

This pair of Bald Eagles have been hanging around one of the lakes here for a couple weeks now. Saturday we had snow again, which is not a huge surprise. We took off in it and thought it was not a good idea to go down into the canyon so we headed in the direction of this lake. This pair of Bald Eagles we both agreed they must of came down from the Cascade Mountains for the better fishing and all around prey on what I call the flats. Not sure what others around here call this area. I call it the flats for one can actually walk it. I trekked out into the snow to capture these photographs. The one that is on the left is keeping it's eyes on me, that one seams to be the dominant Bald Eagle and the first to fly. The other followed.

I am very pleased to get these shots of this Northern Harrier. I got these a couple hours ago down the road where we have seen this bird and another or so in a pasture. These birds have been seen on private land and I do not trespass so when this opportunity arose today, while this Northern Harrier was not on the private land I took it! While doing my research on this bird I came to realize why this bird of prey had a problem being still for me. Blending in is what I try to do with the environment, but being quiet is another story. This bird realize on hearing as much as sight when hunting. This bird was hearing me coming! The male and female of the species look very different I found out as well. This Harrier is the male of the species. I thought this Northern Harrier was on some prey, however after looking over the photographs it appears to be on some grasses.

Oregon Western Meadowlark , I was tickled to finally get this meadowlark sitting still long enough for a photograph to be tak.....

When I take photographs I take them for me first. I went really public with my photographs a little while ago on this computer, some of you have even been with me through this process. With all the stuff I heard about computers and all.... I just kept them off the computer. Now with over 92,000 visitors to my site I think I have hopefully given people a little entertainment sharing our life over here in Oregon? I am enjoying showing and selling my photography to the world on the computer! I am even doing photograph calls n....

These birds were funny for as soon as they seen me paying attention to them they took of flying! We were not sure what these birds were and had to do some research. These were on the Crooked River here in Central Oregon. Nearest town was Post Oregon.

We were up in the Malheur National Forest last Saturday and got a couple photographs. Guy had planned to go to a spot for photographs where we would hike around. This was the first trip in our dodge ram we just picked up. Our chevy suburban is no longer and we like the Ram truck, but we really loved the suburban and of course it was paid off. WOW did things not go as planned!

Long Eared Owls. Wild Owls photographed here in central Oregon.

What is interesting to me, got me thinking (oh oh she is thinking again ha), we are central Oregon BUT we are not central Oregon. We are not included in many central Oregon happenings. People think of Bend and Redmond when thinking of Central Oregon.

The earlier experienced light (grateful memory) helps me to continue through the threatening realm of November … lonely optimist, wish for recovery, pavements story.... What was your experience? Speak your mind

Brief encounter: Dodge Viper SRT-10 the skies opened up and the sun shone down upon us here at top speed recently when we received a call from our test car supplier letting us know that they had something special in store for this nbsp ..." >

Perspective law builds shapes in the image, yet it's our mindset that defines the range of visibility in the artwork. Thus wet flatness underfoot revealed its heroes, who enabled me to paint - inspired to open the heart. Thus while gazing at the puddle, I understood we both were searching for the color.

We went to a marsh Sunday where I found this Mountain Bluebird.
