Blastoff

 Snow Geese image from the morning blastoff, between Choteau and Fairfield, MT at Freeze Out Lake. This is a stopping point on their migration north to breed.

Just posted this yesterday online for the first time. This image has been exceptionally well received with over 5000 views in one day on Flickr.com. So far this is my most viewed image of anything I have ever posted.

Here is great info about these birds on Wikipedia for anyone interested in their migration and breeding patterns.  (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snow_geese)

Great Horned Owl_#6 2013


Went looking for Snowy Owls today (2013-01-06) in the Mission Valley of the Flathead south of Polson, MT, I got skunked on that but was able to stir up some Great Horned Owls. In all I found three within about a quarter mile of each other. All in all it was great day!

Wind Shear_#5/365 2013

A different view of St. Nick than I posted a few days ago. This I think is even more dramatic as it shows what the wind is doing up higher. 

Apologies for not posting this last night but crappy Wildblue satellite service failed, I wish I had another choice besides satellite. Maybe next year there may be another option in this area.
As always thanks for the views and any comments. Please feel free to criticize if you are so inclined!

The Image Within_#4/365 2013

I will probably continue with my snow theme for a while as this is all I see this time of the year. I hope everyone enjoys these images. 

Image of the old homesteaders cabin at Luebeck Lake just inside GNP park boundaries. This is very near what is known as False Summit and is about four miles east of Marias Pass which is the continental divide.
