WBW - Yosemite Birds and more


Love this shot of this Acron Woodpecker just dropping from the tree branch, must be wonderful to fly!!



Acorn Woodpecker working hard to find just the right hole for this Acorn.


This is the Granary tree that most of my Woodpecker photos were taken on.



Red Tailed Hawk



These Dragonfly were flying all over the place, didn't think I was gonna catch a shot of any of them until this nice one landed in the grass. I believe it's a Green Darner.

Half Dome at sunset


Baby Bear on the side of the road, there was a mama bear too but I wasn't able to get many good pictures, this was by far the best.


Lots of Deer, these 2 fawn are my favorite photo.



Squirrel chilling out in the sun, so used to people, we didn't phase it until we got very close.


Tiny little squirrel.

WBW - Common Raven

This was the first bird I took a picture of in my recent visit to Yosemite.
They are a joy to watch and I love the rough croak sound they make
 and the sound of the wind whipping through their wings as they fly!


This one spent alot of time in this fire pit and alot of time on the edge pulling and tossing burn logs around.

I Heart Macro - Yosemite


I was in Yosemite for several days recently,
I only had a chance to take one photo of this beautiful pinecone.
It's quite large, about 10" long if I remember right.
One of my commenters informed me this is a Jeffrey Cone. Good to know, thank you!


I wish I could have studied it a little more.

A little secret, this isn't macro at all.
I took this photo from about 6 feet away with my 50mm lens.
It's the only lens I lugged around Yosemite.
I'm so happy the one and only picture I was able to take turned out so good,
 other than something in front of the lens in the bottom corner.
