This week On The Road will feature Albatrossity, Mawado, BillinGlendale, JanieM, and Steve from Mendocino.
In case you missed it, we featured Albatrossity in the Artists in Our Midst series yesterday.
Albatrossity
Okay, summer is here (and apparently it will be here for real this week (predicted highs over 100F for several days), so it’s time to switch gears, as promised. Summer birds and other critters will be the theme for the next few weeks on Monday mornings.
Baltimore Orioles (Icterus galbula) are abundant and flashy residents of the eastern half of the continent in the summer, but they often hide in trees, making it difficult to truly appreciate their splendor. Our local prairies have some trees, but lots more shrubs and grasses, and occasionally an oriole can be convinced to perch out there, in the open, for a portrait. This handsome after-second-year male didn’t stay long, but I did get the shot!
