The Southern Atlantic Ocean crashes onto the beach here and Brown Boobies surfed the waves, occasionally touching a wing-tip into the face of one to leave a momentary streak. Burrowing Owls had nested in a small clearing of flat ground last year and I was keen to re-find them. I can recommend an owl shoot to anyone with a bad back.

Two full days at Hart Mountain Wildlife Refuge, three days at Dog Lake, and a short visit to Upper Cottonwood Lake brought back many great memories, in addition to a nice list of birds. The first part of the week, we parked the RV at a campground right on the water, of Dog Lake, 20 miles southwest of Lakeview, Oregon.

One of my crutches went through it, under it, where the sucking mud was waiting to pull off the rubber tip, so with every successive step it would no longer stay on top of the crust but go all the way down.

A couple of days ago, my end of the world started to tip back towards the Sun. I just now got back from dog sledding with my son and his friend. Or they called at us from dog teams tethered on the ice, too busy stealing food to have a closer look. Gyrfalcon and Snowy Owl also stick around, but they are harder to find.

I’ve even paid a few calls to Massachusetts in the dead of winter for finches and owls. There were a not insignificant number of apparent Herring x Glaucous-winged hybrids too, with black tips and pale mantles. When a pair of walkers with a dog came down the path, however, it paused to look them over.

What does a Flammulated Owl do all night? The average (responsible) dog-owner does not think of his or her dog functioning on instinct, but as a organism with deep emotional ties to its family that seeks out pleasures and avoids pains… which, fundamentally, is how we people operate.

Nothing that couldn’t be achieved through dogged determination and Redbull! Cuban Pewee 2; Paul and Anita Guris 0 A Cuban Pewee by Mike Bergin Jochen Roder spent a long time walking to dip on a Snowy Owl in Norway.
