Day 136 – Gone Fishing
Koi fishing at the Japanese Garden. Anyone know what kind of bird this is?
Day 121 – The Damn Bird
While this woodpecker was cool to look at, he was not my friend. In fact, he was the only bad thing I could say about my vacation as he liked to beat on the roof at about 5am every day we were in Phoenix. It sounded like a jackhammer against the roof.
Day 50 – Harbor Sky
Harbor Sky, shot in the Kenosha Harbor a bit upstream from the Island Bridge. This area shows the river completely frozen over, the boats wrapped up tight, a few seagulls and Canadian geese in the distance. Shot with my wife’s Canon T4i w/10-20mm Sigma lens. Yes, we use a circular polarizer to get that sky! Amazing stuff!
Day 43 – Turkey Day
Turkeys are awesome critters. We tried to get this one flying, but he just didn’t want to do anything but run. They have a brain the size of a pea but they are interesting to look at and YUMMY to eat!
Day 22 – Juvenile Eagle Soaring Above the Wisconsin River
Day 20 – The Eagles are shrieking for Freedom
The bald eagle, a beautiful soaring wonder on the Wisconsin River near Sauk City. Full of boundless freedom, strong and recovered from near extinction the bald eagle is the national emblem of our country. His soaring wings displaying the freedom.

Day 10 – Red-billed Birds
I think this is the Common Merganser, but I’m not a birder. I do know that they were enjoying a swim on the edge of the partially iced over Milwaukee River.
