Sharing the world through my lens.
A few weeks back I spent a day looking for Bald Eagles in the Land Between the Lakes. After 8 hours of not seeing I decided to head back home. I made the turn onto my road and there waiting for me was this Bald Eagle. Just shows sometimes you don’t need to get far from home to find what you’re looking for.
Elk were reintroduced to Land Between the Lakes in the late 1990’s. They have a large area to roam and are intermixed with a Bison heard.
Happy New Year! We have some great weather the last few days. This Blue Jay was flying so close to the Red Tailed Hawk. The hawk just ignored it however.
The Yaks at KRK Ranch and Fees are enjoying the cold weather and snow. East Central Illinois has had about 16 inches already and it’s not even officially winter yet!
It has been extremely cold here on the Illinois Prairie. The day I took this photo it was -2 degrees outside. But the sun did put on a grand show as it set across the western horizon.
A cold morning at Homer Lake.
The northern lights out on quite a show on the evening of November 11. I was down in Kentucky and they were very visible over Lake Barkley. Simply beautiful.
Cave-In-Rock, Illinois sits on a bluff above the Ohio River. To cross from the Kentucky side you take a ferry across the river.
I came through on my way home and times my stop to see the sunrise over the Ohio. It is a breathtaking view to see the sun come up there.
Cave-In-Rock itself is a small town of about 1,300 people. There is a state park that has the actual Cave-In-Rock that you can visit.
This location has been a stop for mankind for hundreds if not thousands of years.
