Sunset tonight over Antelope Island. These photos were taken with my iPhone and not changed at all except for cropping a bit on one.
Taken in Bountiful, UT.

A different “natural wonder” today. I’m in SoCal and traveling from Pasadena down into the Hills and the Goodyear blimp is flying over Dodger Stadium.

Not something I’ve ever seen in Utah but have in Ohio… https://t.co/vX2ii3jfz9

While most of us do not care for flies, they are part of nature and have their place in the ecological cycle.

Three shots from a day a few weeks ago when the sun was setting. I was doing some work for a horse ranch.

Whtie-faced Ibis preening. It was wading and fishing with a larger group. The color of the feathers is amazing and surprising.

White American Pelicans circling to gain altitude as they head off into the unknown. Pelicans can fly at a significant altitude.

Snowy Egret fishing at Farmington Bay Refuge. It was fun to watch them shuffling their feet. It's a wonder how such a white bird keeps clean in the green algae.
