    Event was a little chaotic getting started, which was not really the leader's fault. Teacher is knowledgeable and I learned some helpful information. Unfortunately, there was not a superabundance of birds to put the knowledgeable into practice. Maybe it would be a good idea to reschedule the class at a place like Bosque del Apache in the late fall and winter.

    I was sitting on the patio testing a new Canon 70-200 lens when a road runner jumped up on the fence and stared at me. No words were used, but I could tell from his expression that he was saying "take my picture!", and I did. Canon 80D, 70-200mm lens, at f/5.6, 1/250 of a second at 800 ISO.

    Title or Location: Isla Plaza Sur, Gal?pagos Islands
    On Isla Plaza Sur in the Gal?pagos Islands, the land iguana can often be seen feeding on the prickly pear cactus, a vital part of their diet. In a remarkable display of adaptation, the iguana uses its strong claws to carefully scrape off the sharp spines and glochids from the cactus pads before eating them. This behavior allows the iguana to safely consume the nutrient-rich flesh of the plant while avoiding injury. This image highlights the unique survival strategies developed by species in the

    I've made multiple attempts at this picture trying to make something suitable for a wall art panoramic. My first few chances it did not have enough pixels. So when I was lucky enough to go for work I walked the 3 miles to try it again. I was fortunate to have the sun break through and create two different rainbows and a fantastic scene for all. I sat there for 2 hours hours capturing the same image in different phases of the evening and this is my favorite as it highlights the red, white and
