"Greetings from TEXAS"

Greeting from Texas, Everyone!!!!
Just to let EVERYONE know that i will be roaming State of Texas for few days on my way to Winter location.....I will be concentrating in the area where birds migrate from North and do BIRDWATCH for a time being...

This DOWNY/HAIRY Woodpecker was captured while he was busy poking hole in the tree as usual....

When he spotted me he ran....This was a split second capture......with my 300 mm prime lens....No i didnt have a time to use my 600 mm.....It was kind a unexpected...I was eyeing kingfisher but got this...

Camufladged and quiet with lots of patience the results are not always what we want....weather down here s beautiful in upper 70's and that is just what i like...

For more birds shots such as this please visit my website at http://aphoto4you.smugmug.com/ all my work is available for purchase anywhere from mugs to prints and prints on canvas....Thanks for visit...leave me a comment...I love to hear your opinion on my work....

GOODBYE Tetons!!!!!

This morning i started to cry...gave many huggs to friends i have met and spend time shooting photography at Tetons...Sad and tierful i left....I drove 245 miles (usualy i dont drive more then 300 miles a day ...as i dont rush to nowhere)through canyon that had more snow then actualy tetons itself...Looks like that south route took lots more snow storm then north site of tetons...

Saw a bald eagle on a way feeding on a road kill...coudnt possibly park with RV and vehicle in tow and road was to narrow...frusg and narrotrating as he was sitting so beautifuly on a fence near kill...saw another eagle down the road few miles further but it wasnt bald eagle....lso coudnt stop...

Road was winding and narrow and no sun, cold and almost frozen...Didnt enjoy much that ride but i made it down of the mountains.....Tomorrow morning i will continiue my journey south...I am still in Wyoming tonight...Still chance of bad weather and snow storm this weekend...through colorado and wyoming and the route i am taking...However i am on Interstate and wide open road so i feel safe...

Oh yes i stopped when i was able and sure enough Highway patrol came by...Asking me if everything is okay...I said i just stopped to get my electric blanket...to cover my lap when i am driving and feel warm...

Right now i am still wounded and sad...I asked my friend to look after my 4-legged friends....she promissed me she will...I shall return next year....I miss this place already and will continiue to miss it till May 1st...

I have in plan to shoot migrating birds down south, pehaps going to Mcallen,TX and ofcourse Arizona..Tomorrow my journey will continiue south...

Stay tunned for more....in the mean time visit my website for more wildife and nature photos at http://aphoto4you.smugmug.com/

SNOW Finaly ARRIVED here

Well Snow finaly Arrived at Grand Tetons National Park...and i am sad to say I have to make preparation to get down of these mountains and head down to Arizona....Every time i leave this place i cry.....and i get emotional....eversince i have first visited here in 1979.....

It will take me few weeks to get over it...Ofcourse Arizona have lots to offer as far photography goes....different ambient and scenery though....But idea to deal with high 80's temperature still down south makes me very unhappy.....I love winters and snow...Snow here is in forecast 7-11 inches in next few days...It snowed all day today....it doesnt stick that much...but tomorrow will...as temperatures suposed to drop down to 22F....and next day and next day....I will try to get out and bring some snow scenery on my website..... http://aphoto4you.smugmug.com/

Stay tunned for me...
