The Eggs

Well, what do you think?

Baby Goffin Cockatoo

These baby Goffin Cockatoo babies are so ugly when born and yet turn into these gorgeous white birds, which are some of the sweetest and most personable as pets.  This one had been hatched only 5 hours when this was taken.  They need to be fed every 2 hours at first, a very very thin formula made just for baby parrots.

The Stream in the Snow

This photo was taken on the way to Stowe, Vermont.  I love the days that you get in the car with no particular agenda, take a back road or three and find beautiful scenes like this.  Makes it worth the trip.

Icy River

Taken driving down Rte. 118 close to Woodstock, New Hampshire.  The whole area looks like a winter wonderland with a fresh dusting of snow the past couple days.  Temperature at night has been reading -15 on my outdoor thermometer.  Ski areas are still hoping for snow that will stick - has been a mild winter for most of the east coast.

The Cross Country Skier

It's that time again.....snow time.  New England is always beautiful this time of year, especially in areas where there are so many winter activities.  There are still many unspoiled areas to enjoy with scenes like this.  I do better at viewing than "doing" - have you tried walking in snowshoes?   Almost broke my neck trying to get started.  Good exercise though.

The Old Barn

This photo was taken along rte. 302 between Lisbon and Littleton, New Hampshire.  I wanted to capture it before the "elements" did anything else to it - like cause it's demise.  It doesn't seem to matter which season you drive by this barn, it always looks beautiful in it's old age.  I'd like to do the same.
