you can see a small white cross below the majestic oak tree

Bathed in warm afternoon light—

Perched at dawn

dividing expanses of land that seemed halfway to nowhere

River ripples in response—

I hope that by capturing and showing these moments can inspire others to appreciate wildlife that we pass by every day

seemed like an ancient guardian of the twilight

filled with the ancestry of seasonal migrations

He glided effortlessly over the fields

The owl launched

each hunt a reminder of the delicate balance in the wild

In the chill embrace of a late winter afternoon
