Here ya go PWeed... while I love the mountains, I find a beauty in a lot of North and South Dakota, along with the rest of the plains states to the south... I love the geographical diversity that North America has been blessed with... Wow, composition and subject both mesh in this picture... I agree shrapnel - thought exactly the same about that photo you posted. About that - was yours at sunrise, or set? What is that vertical object in the mid-ground - can't quite figure it with these eyes?

That is evening sun in low cloud cover shining through an abandoned well on the top of a hill near an old homestead. We shoot prairie dogs in the pasture below...

When I first saw that (great)pic I thought sunrise...
But then I remembered Flave or Rancho(?) telling me that you always sleep in and miss out on good hunting...
Sunset makes sense now....grin

CCCC; Thanks for the thread sir, I really enjoy seeing what our fellow 'Fire members see from day to day. While we've got a wee bit less snow this year, it looked very much like this a couple weeks back looking up the hill from our front door step. Looking down at the garage from the same step. We kinda live semi rural and don't have a dog, so there are many days when we see a few of these. Sometimes they get downright "at home" here.... We usually have a few sets of fawns born here every spring too, so they're fun to watch. Anyway that's our place in a couple seasons. Thanks again for the thread and all the best to you and yours this weekend. Dwayne

Dwayne, eagle central on the river bottom here lately. I was nice and picked a deer out of the road ditch and carried it over the bank for them. Lots of young eagles, they must have had a great year.

Sam; Thanks for the raptor photos, I always enjoy your photos and the bird ones are �ber as Travis would say. We had an osprey hanging out here for quite a while last year and I enjoyed watching him eating fish at the top of the big Doug Fir at the top of our driveway. Sorry this isn't as crisp a photo as yours is. One day I was coming off the mountain from a hunt with a load of shaggy mane mushrooms and these guys were in the same tree. It made me wonder whether or not the mushrooms were really shaggy manes and these guys had an "inside scoop" on what would happen if I ate them... All the best to you folks Sam and thanks again. Dwayne

Lots of young eagles, they must have had a great year. your chunk of river bottom has always been good for eagles though.....remember going to look for Skip when he was supposed to be cutting wood down on your guys bottom stuff and jumped a bunch eating a deer caught in a snag in the river.....if i was lacking brains i coulda reached out and grabbed one when it flew up
