| Slightly Threatening. |
The weather man this week hedged his prediction by covering off everything,e.g. cloudy/sunny/rainy and then quoting the probability of rain. It's a good system as it gives him an excellent chance of being right.
This post is somewhat the same a little bit of everything.

Nice, very nice captures, Gary. I'd say Mama Hairy has a family to feed. What a busy beak!

You have everything what a man and a dog needs around. I like very much, in addition to birds, another animal, flowers and sky. Just lovely series!
ReplyDeletethis post is a veritable buffet of eye candies.
ReplyDeleteMy sky is here
Why would the weatherman want to take a chance of being wrong!!! Lovely skies, and the shots of the various birds are outstanding. Have a great weekend. Mickie :)
ReplyDeleteGreat assortment of photos! The sky shots are beautiful love the puffy clouds. It seems the weatherman lately like to cover themselves and will not commit to one forcast. I love the woodie and the other birds. Cool capture of the beaver. Happy skywatching and have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos, I love them all!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend.
The picture of the mourning dove especially caught my eye, though all of them are lovely. I missed the Canada Mayflowers this year, so I was glad to see your picture of them.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers and birds. Love it.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots of the fluffy clouds in the sky as well as the birds and fauna underneath them!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend Gary!

Love those dramatic clouds! And such adorable birds and flowers. Seems as if you've had sun as well as cooler weather...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful skyline Gary.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots. Each a stunner.
ReplyDeleteLove those clouds!
ReplyDeleteLove the clouds, Gary, and the female woodpecker must have youngsters to feed, but I just love the beaver photos. I've never been able to photograph one.
