Morgan’s First Romp In The Snow

This is not our first white yard of the season, but it is the first that Morgan has been old enough to romp in. I love watching our bassets run. Those ears and rolls of skin dance all over their bodies! Morgan is 20 weeks old.

Freak Snow Storm

It looked like a freak snow storm hit the Highlands yesterday. The Mimosa Café and The Egg Roll caught fire on what was the coldest day I have felt yet. It was -2 degrees when the fire department worked to put out the fire. As they sprayed water the cold air froze it into this winter wonderland. Several neighboring streets are covered in ice as well. It is sad to see the damage, but the ice sculptures really are amazing.






I also went to the Louisville Zoo today, but after shooting animals in the wild, really was not all that thrilled to shoot through glass. I did watch the birthday party for Timmy, the oldest gorilla in captivity. He is 50!

Reelfoot Lake Tennessee #4

Today was my final day at Reelfoot then the trip home. It was a slow sunrise with very overcast beginnings, but I still enjoyed it. I finally got the take off and in flight shots I wanted today. What a wonderful way to end the weekend! Packing up to leave, the resident cat decided to pose for a picture.

Reelfoot Lake Tennessee #3

Today was RAINY! So since I could not do much on the lake in a miserable day, I found one of only four remaining covered bridges in Tennessee. This is the Parks Covered Bridge in Obion County Tennessee. After this side trip, I returned to Reelfoot to see if I would have any luck with the eagles, but it was still too gloomy to get much. A small owl is all that was to be found this evening. Oh well, partly cloudy forecast for the morning brings hope of a lovely sunrise before heading back home.

Reelfoot Lake Tennessee #2

Today, day two at Reelfoot Lake. Sunrise was FREEZING COLD! I am surprised I didn’t get frost bite. I found a Bald Eagle in the top of a tree and after waiting for over two hours for him to fly off to get him in flight; he lifted his wings, turned around and sat again. I finally gave up. Today the barred owl I found was out in the open with no branches in front of him. What a catch! I have to admit the close up eagle head and talons was in the rehabilitation cage at the visitors center. I also caught site of a Red Tailed Hawk and another spectacular sunset. It was a wonderful day!

Reelfoot Lake Tennessee #1

Today I arrived at Reelfoot Lake in Tennessee. I stayed at the Blue Bank Hotel. They have a great eagle watching package that includes a fantastic meal! I went with 16 members (2 more members headed out but sadly had to turn back) of my camera club, The PhotoForum This was my first time to come out to see the nesting Bald Eagles. Day one I saw some eagles but really could not get close enough for a good picture. I did find a Great Blue Herron and a Barn Owl. Sunsets over the lake are beautiful!

Flurries

We had a light dusting last night but it was long gone by noon.
