MORE BIRDS AND MORE COLOUR.

 The colour along our river trail is getting pretty nice.  A couple days ago we took the General for a ride up in the Burnell Lake area and found a bit of nice colour in spots.   That was what we did special for our 56th anniversary.

We took a road trip today over to Princeton then returned via the Princeton-Summerland Road.  There was some beautiful colour in the Princeton to Osprey Lake area.  Those photos will be posted in a few days.  Things are busy around here so I haven't been keeping up with editing my photos.

This was one of those split second things where I saw the eagle flying down the river just before he got opposite me.  Luckily my exposure was set for the light and I just threw my camera up to my eye and hoped for the best.

I surprised this Mallard hen and rather than take flight, she decided to brazen it out.

Sandhill Cranes heading south.  Notice the second from the left appears to have four winds?  There were two merging and in the next photo you can see two different cranes.
