Love the mountains and clouds in the third and fourth pics."...you pointy-headed autopsy nerd. Do you think it's possible for you to post without using words like "hilarious," "absurd," "canard," and "truther"? Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

As far as scenics, these are a few of my favorite so far. Lovely evening. The one with the road in the foreground looked better in person, the highlights in the clouds were more spectacular than the image reveals.Originally posted by Northwestcoug View PostComment

Great pics. How did you manage to spot that little owl down in the grass?Originally posted by swampfrog View PostComment

It's a burrowing owl sitting on its nest. If you're connected to the local birders (as Mark Smith the tour guide is), you can know where every interesting/rare nest site is. The telephone poles along the gravel road are numbered which gets you close, and there is a plastic cup resting upside down on the fence post closest to the nest.Originally posted by mtnbiker View Post
Often there is a car or two parked in front of it also.
As with all communities, there is an advantage to belonging. The birder community is the holder of truths that they hold sacred and will not divulge them to random passers by. They first must assess your level of commitment to certain rites and standards. Weird.Comment

As close as I wanted to be (the lens needed 15 feet or so to focus). The guide picked it up so we could get a closer look.Originally posted by happyone View Posthow far away were you from that snake? - he does not look happy
