Happily married singer, songwriter, guitar player, and birder. I take a lot of pictures, but I'm not really a photographer. A few things I believe in: Peace, music, birds, love, and myself. Please, no DM'S
Thanks for stopping by!
Peace.......period.

Townsend's Solitaire. (I'm fairly certain.) When I took this picture, I thought I was getting another Mockingbird. As it turned out, I got myself new one for my list. Peace! #birds #birding #solitaire #thrush #birdphotography #birdwatching #peace

The Phainopepla is such a striking bird. Beautiful glossy feathers, beautiful singing voice, and arguably the best hair in the biz. Peace! #birds #birding #neotropical #phainopepla #birdwatching #birdphotography #peace

This is a Black tailed Gnatcatcher. He was kind enough to sit still for a few shots. It was the first and last time I've ever seen one. That's the reason I have a camera. Peace! #birds #birding #gnatcatcher #birdwatching #peace

This is Chipping Sparrow. I have to say, when these little guys are foraging around the rocks, they are real challenge to spot. Especially when they sit still. I realize it's by design, but it still impresses me that they hide so well in plain site. Peace! #birds #sparrows #birdin #peace #camouflage
