A hummingbird sips nectar from a wild currant flower amid the multitude of tiny pink flowers covering the bushes. Too dark a day for wing stopping shutter speeds, I opt for a wing blurring speed and find the resulting transparency of the wing make this a favorite image of recent days.
At six thirty this morning the sun lit up lions head for a few minutes before the clouds closed in again. It’s been cloudy the rest of the day and is snowing again tonight as I write this.
These wildflowers are among the first to bloom in the spring in my area. Second only to a minute white wildflower around my house. These are a bit larger- generally 2 to 5 inches tall. I am happy to be able to join everyone celebrating spring with muddy knees and wildflower photography.
It’s nesting season for the Canada Geese recently arrived at Lower Lake Ranch. Photographed in last week’s snowfall.
