Drip ... drip ...drip ...


April 27 (2014) was a day that was spent with a group of friends, driving around Frank Lake, SE of Calgary, checking to see what bird species we could find. It started off extremely foggy with a touch of hoarfrost. Perhaps not the ideal weather for seeing birds, but the fog did eventually clear and the sun came out. It turned out to be a beautiful day and most enjoyable, with a good number of bird species found - a total of 53 species. All the birds were extremely distant, apart from a couple of owl nests and a pair of Tree Swallows, so my photos are more or less limited to landscape, hoarfrost, etc., all of which I love. I always tend to miss quite a few of the birds, as I get distracted by other things, such as this melting hoarfrost with refractions of the blue sky and grassland.
