Month: March 2022

With a distant gaze

and no thought of poverty

a Sherpa child dreams

They’re cute and special

Today is World Otter Day

A keystone species

Flicker finds a nest

Time for mating, raising young

The season’s turning

This is Pasque Flower

Must photo while on belly

Wonder what it thinks

It’s Saint Patrick’s Day

Green photo from Ecuador

Not been to Ireland

Open road beckons

Our choices guide our journey

Where to travel next?

Mountains. Clouds. Water.

The natural world. Freedom.

Thank you, for these gifts.

Bike races each day

Memorial Day weekend

The town is jumping

Every year on the Memorial Day Weekend there are multiple bike races in Durango.  The signature race is a road race from Durango to Silverton….50 miles. 5,700 foot elevation gain….two passes over 10,000 feet…Incredible mountain scenery…..They even close the highway…..Racers race the train from Durango to Silverton…..The pros always win

“Here turkey turkeys,”

I call, go out and throw seeds

and they come running.

This morning when I got home from town, there were a dozen wild turkeys under Grandmother Tree. I hadn’t seen any turkeys in months and at that time it was only 2 or 3. I decided to go out and see what they would do and attempt a video with my cell phone…..Anyway, it doesn’t appear that I can post a video on this web site so here’s a frame from the video.
