Mostly pictures of my dog and other things. All photos are mine unless reposted or otherwise noted

A black and white pencil sketch of my dog laying on the bed
Side profile of a Blue Jay perched on a fence, it's beak open as it prepares to swallow a large seed.
Side view of a Great Egret on the ground, neck almost fully extended and staring at something directly ahead of it out of frame
A green plastic frog sitting on top of a fence post with a cigarette butt in its mouth.
A Monarch Butterfly sipping pollen with its wings outspread
Black and white image of a crow perched on a branch on a leafless tree
A Blue Jay perched on a fence, beak open and head tilted back as it swallows a seed.
A Downy Woodpecker perched on a fence with their back to the camera. Most of the body is in shadow while the head is in the sun, highlighting the bright red spot on the back of it's head.
Close up of a black and white dog staring intently at the camera
A Texas Spiny Lizard paused in the process of climbing up onto a wooden porch to give the camera a cautious side eye.
A Texas Spiny Lizard holding vertically onto a fence.
A portrait of a heron staring into the camper while standing among tall grass.
My dog wadding through the river shallows with a bright blue sky filled with fluffy clouds above him
A female Mallard swimming toward the camera, the sun creating a shiny reflection off her wet feathers. A male follows behind, out of focus due to the distance.
A black and white dog walking through a creek, stirring up the otherwise still water. His reflection seen in the undisturbed water in front of him
A small songbird perched on a branch and leaning far over as if trying to see something. The sitting sun throwing a sharp shadow across its belly.
A 6 second exposure with ICM, the movement making the pair of street lamps appear as a long string of lights looping over each other over a hazy treeline in the background.
A Blue Heron stretching its wings out on the bank of a river.
A gull mid flight, crossing in front of the camera at a shallow angle.
A black and white dog with the sky as a backdrop, standing alert with one leg held off the ground.
A flock of something (Sandpipers I think, but the low light and how fast they were moving made it hard to tell for sure) flowing low above the water, their reflections distorted in the rippling surface.
A Great Blue Heron standing on the river banks and surveying the waters
A rather grumpy looking juvenile Black-Crowned Night Heron spotted through, and framed by, a gap in the foliage
A male/female pair of Mallard Ducks stand side by side on a rock barely above the water in the middle of a shallow river. The male is staring at the female while she preens herself
An egret preparing to strike at a nearby fish.
A flock of ducks standing and swimming in a shallow river. Taken at a low angle in bright sunlight, the ducks are seen as black silhouettes against the bright, sparkling water.
A blue heron flying low over four ducks swimming along a river
A turkey buzzard soaring through a blue sky, framed above and below by power lines in the foreground.
A phone lock screen showing a photo of a black and white dog looking at the camera from a field of flowers.
A flock of Blue Herons lifting off from a river bank as a dog runs parallel to them.
A crow perched on a leafless tree, framed in a natural window created by a gap in the twigs sticks and branches surrounding them. The tree and crow are completely black like shadows, with a featureless grey sky behind.
A great white egret takes off from the riverbed at early dusk, white feathers brightly illuminated by the setting sun while the riverbank behind them is in shadow. Is this properly framed? No. Is my dog in the foreground distracting? Yes. Do I love this picture anyway? Yes.
My brother petting a wicker dog while the real dog looks on with consternation.
Scanned image of a black and white photograph of the front yard of a farmhouse. Neatly cut lawn surrounded by a white picket fence, and beyond a pair of old sheds and a dirt road winding up the hill.
A wide dirt path winding through hilly woods, the ground slopping away to the left. Two people are walking along the trail in the distance
My dog walking through the shallows of the river, caught in the middle of a step giving him a jaunty, somewhat goofy appearance.
A cropped screencap of my account showing 55 each followers, following, and posts
A blurry picture of my dog Sho playing tug with an old, torn up toy. His tail is a happy blur.
A white 1950s Ford pickup sitting in a lean to attached to an old barn barn, grass and weeds growing up from the dirt floor. Despite the state of its shelter, the truck itself has been fully restored and runs beautifully.
A fallen tree bridging a creek running through the forest.
A blue heron flying through a dusky sky, carrying a leafy twig in its feet.
A small lake with smooth, dark water and a barren muddy shoreline, an uprooted white stump half in the water. Brush, shrubs, and small trees visible on the far shore.
The diamond ring of a total solar eclipse, visible through and illuminating a whisper layer of clouds
A cloudy sunset reflected in the smooth, calm river below
The green banks of a river as dusk sets in, the sun behind a thin layer of clouds
A wood and iron bridge spanning a large man made stream, the green trees reflected in the smooth water.
A purple flower growing up the guyline of a telephone pole.
A cloudy sky hanging over a cluster of houses in a suburban neighborhood.
A sunset through the leaves of a tree in the distance, the sky still mostly blue while the foreground grass is in heavy shade.
A picture of Shonen, my current dog, when he was around a year old. Black and white and wearing a blue color, he's sitting and staring up at me expectantly, ears half flopped over. Intelligent and energetic, even at 9 he's a handful, but I wouldn't trade him for the world.
A black and white dog walking through the shallows at sunset, his reflection clear in the water beneath him.
Birds flying over water in the top of the frame, their reflections visible across the bottom.
A pair of crows on a lamp post. One of them is captured mid hop, wings still tucked against it's body, as it prepares to glide to the ground.
A group of egrets flying over a misty river shortly after sunrise
Four ducks in a row paddling slowly over a calm, shallow river.
A white wading bird high stepping through knee deep water under a hard midday sun.
Around a dozen bags of mulch sandwiched between two blue mattresses, sitting in someone's lawn by the curb.
