A sky bursting with clouds


I love our wonderful Alberta skies! They seem to go on and on forever, especially when seen over the flat prairies. This photo was taken SE of Calgary, at Frank Lake, on 27 April 2014.
This was a day that was spent with a group of friends, driving around the lake, 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.
