During my visit to San Francisco last year I captured this bird splashing violently in the water as another bird struggled to get out of the line of fire.

I shot this photo of two bees pollinating a flower during my hike of the Delaware & Raritan Canal in Princeton. Not quite a macro since it was taken from further away with a zoom lens, but my Sigma does a pretty good job of approximating macro photos. However, the bees and the flower ignored my request to sit still for the photo. 🙂

Here’s a photo of some donkeys grazing up high in the mountains, shot during the first day of my Inca Trail hike. Every time I look back on these photos I’m thankful that I decided to do the hike–there’s so much beauty along the Inca Trail that I would have missed had I chosen to take the train straight to Machu Picchu.

It’s been a long time since I’ve posted a photo of the day, so in honor of Endangered Species Day, here is a mule deer I encountered in Yosemite National Park this past fall along the Yosemite Falls trail, grazing peacefully, completely unafraid of humans. Yes, I realize that the mule deer is not an endangered animal, but since I don’t have any photos of endangered animals, this beautiful specimen of unendangered North American wildlife will have to suffice. 🙂
Here’s hoping for a day when all the world’s creatures will be as unthreatened as this deer.

One of the most popular San Francisco Bay tourist attractions is the sea lion gathering at Pier 39. These gregarious beasts lounge on the docks here day and night, and you can hear their barks from far away.
To me, the best part about the Pier 39 sea lions is knowing that you’re gazing upon wild animals behaving naturally rather than captive animals on display in a zoo enclosure. They may not smell so good, but they are beautiful creatures.

During my recent trip to Cape May I went on a bird watching cruise through the marshes, where I was lucky enough to capture this osprey in flight clutching a fish in its talons.
You get two photos for the price of one today. 🙂
