Too close for its comfort.

I got too close to this Barn Swallow’s nest for its comfort, so it repeatedly swooped to warn me away. The first several swoops were quite startling because it silently and rapidly flew directly at me from in front, from the side, from behind. Within only a few feet of me it veered away as it gave (what I presume is) its alarm cry.

I captured this image as it veered, only a little farther from me than my arm can reach. A beautiful bird.

This strawberry was almost ready to pick.

Soft eyes

Lucy’s eyes were particularly soft when I stood on the other side of the gate and took this photo.

Landscape

It’s good to get down on your subject’s level. My subject was fungus growing out of an old tree stump, with a bonus of capturing an inchworm navigating the landscape.

Rides

A Turkey Vulture rides the wind, just before a thunderstorm arrives.

Chili dog

I was reviewing photos and came across this one of Achilles. He was a good boy.
