Full Time RV Travel - Newest Addition to My Birding Life List

This red shouldered hawk was being chased by a much smaller bird. . .

would have been awesome to have gotten those in air pics. . .

but, of course, no camera in hand right at that very sec. . .

Dave took these quickly with a long range lens, which causes them to be a little grainy. . .

but overall. . .absolutely gorgeous. . .thrilled to be able to add to my list!

Full Time RV Travel: Day Tripping–Colorado State Capitol and the Denver Skyline

My goal is to personally photograph all 50 State Capitol Buildings, so with that in mind we set off for

Downtown Denver this morning. . .oops, we forgot about it being Cinco de Mayo. . .traffic was bad. . .crowds were thick, but we persevered and got this awesome shot of . . .

Colorado State Capitol

In addition to wanting a photo of the Capitol. . .I also love city skylines. . .so I researched the

best place to get a good shot of the Denver skyline. . .City Park. . .so that’s where we went.

Standing on the back landing of the Denver Museum of Nature and Science, we also got the

beautiful panorama of the Rocky Mountains with the Capitol Dome in the foreground. . .

My favorite skyline shot. . .

and a close up. . .there was a MS run at the park today. . .

and as a bonus. . .a few shots for my Birding Life List. . .

this Snowy Egret was having a bad hair day. . .

the Double Crested Cormorant were plentiful. . .on the shore

in the water. . .

and nesting.

gave my Peterson Field Guide a workout researching this one. . .

it’s a Black Crowned Night Heron. . .

They were also in nesting mode. . .

and of course. . .Canada Geese. . .I know, I know. . .they are everywhere,

and they are loud and messy. . .but I think they are beautiful. . .

and I want to see how many places I  can get pics of them in. . .

It was a great day. . .tomorrow we head to Estes Park to start our newest project. . .

Updates soon from our summer home. . .
