Sunny Morning hike!

[jonny_redhorse]

I took a ride down to the Sax-Zim Bog this morning wondering what the bog gods would offer today! ...I was looking for anything that lurked,crawled,wiggled or flew...or even grew! ...Here's a few so -so images from this late morning, early afternoon(12:00 noon lighting wasn't the best...)

a couple sandhill cranes I came upon feeding on a raspberry patch about 100 yards from me along Hwy #7...

guess this guy has an itch something terrible!

and what I believe is a "kingbird" but I may be wrong

and a patch of bunchberries...

not a real horse afficiando but this one looked kinda alone in a farmers field....looks like a few scars on it's side...horse has had a tough life

Great pics, Jonny!

Sweetly-conformed horse. Looks like it made an acquaintance with some barbed wire at some point in its past. Horses just seem to gravitate toward barbed wire. Out West where I used to live, they called those "education marks."

Wonder what got under that one crane's skirt.

Were those cranes eating berries?

Good ones Johnny! The sow thistle came out sweet!

Sax-Aim still yields some surprises! Love 'em, jonny!

I agree on the sow thistle. Nice stuff for sure.

Love the sow thistle shot, very nice shot, my second pick would be the horse for the very nice pose.

There is so much bunchberry but those bright red berries are so hard to pass up on.. You are correct, that is a kingbird, id say your a regular ornathologist!
