A Touch of Red 26 June 2016

A touch of summer red here and there atMuldoon.

This Cardinal was singing his heart out when I spied him atop the weather vane. And the Ruby Throat-ed Hummingbird has been stopping by every evening of late.

Violet: not the flower, the Color

FAVORITE

One of many. The choices are abundant in the month of May.

SUNSHINE

A red sunset and as predicted 

the weather the next day was a sailor's delight.

Surprise Results

The Ruby-Throated Hummingbirds are back atMuldoon

and recently one evening at dusk I was trying to capture them.

Due to the low light I was attempting to use manual settings.

When I brought this one up I was taken with the outcome

and love the color from the azalea reflecting on the bird.

(even though the 'subject' almost didn't make the shot)

I didn't apply any photo editing after the fact.

Then I created a Tag using Microsoft WORD

I have a lot to learn and was really pleased with this outcome.

The cycle continues 

for the Red-Winged Blackbird.

Love how the nests are built on stilts above the water.

Welcomed the Ruby Throated Hummingbirds back this week.
