Elton, a wonderful Spectacle Owl

Sophia, how adorable!! :)
They are cute aren't they. I hand fed them for a couple of weeks which was a blast. Elton, well, he's just one of the most spectacular owls I've ever known! I just adore him.
Very nice pictures, everyone!
To continue the theme of winged creatures:
Here are some crows playing high above the floor of Yosemite Valley:

This bird was too quick for me to get a good shot of (from Joshua Tree Nat. Park):

This Pelican, on the other hand, was very photogenic -- he patiently posed on the Huntington Beach Pier for several shots. Maybe he thought fish would come out of the camera?

Ha ha, bluevictim! You just never know . . . maybe he'd seen a polariod camera before, or maybe he's just basking in the attention. =) Great shots!
Boy, don't I look great!

Petrarch, those beach shots are amazing, such beautiful colours. The one with the little girl in it was my favorite. :)
Niamh --- Ahhhh, a sugar-coated Dublin, to be sure! ;) I really liked that last one; lovely pix. :nod:
Dori -- great work with the closeups!
Logos -- your kitty is adorable, looks like you were being watched very carefully. ;)
Becca, I smiled at your naming the aloe vera plant, cute. ;) It must have been difficult to catch that bubble shot, I liked it! :)
weltanschauung -- your moth pictures are amazing. Loved them! And the 'gargoyle' looked like a doggy treat is in order! Cute. :nod:
Sophia, thanks for sharing those cute baby hawks.... adorable! :)
bluevictim -- I loved the pelican pictures, wish I could get that close to one!
subterranean - lol! :lol:
I just got back from a weekend in Vegas with a couple of friends and we were able to sneak away from the glitz and glamour on Sunday to check out the Grand Canyon...
This is us on the tour bus bright and early in the morning...

There were about 50 million crows at Guano Point, here's just a few ;)...

It was a little windy that day, can you tell?...

And we were able to stop at the Joshua Tree Forest on our way home...

Great pictures, Idril! It looks like you had a good time down here in the warmer parts of the country. :)
Speaking of joshua trees, here is one next to Uncle Willie's Health Food Store:

Idril and bluevictim -- I love all of your guy's pictures! I get to travel to Death Valley over spring break for a science class, and I'm really excited to see the clean beauty of the desert. =)
Aren't Joshua trees amazing? Did you know they are really a type of lily? And they only branch apart after they've flowered; so if you see a straight stalk, it hasn't flowered yet. =)
