I must admit, my favorite part of old cars is the hood ornament. They just don't make them like they used to! This one of the eagle was photographed on a Chevy driving in the Route 66 Rendezvous in San Bernardino, CA. That event hasn't been held for several years now, so this one came out of the archives. 7/12/20 My website: www.sparhawkphotography.com
When visiting Lake Fulmor in the San Jacinto Mountains, I found an area with lots of very green ferns, looking wonderfully lush. This shot shows the Penstemon growing in the ferns--one of the hummingbirds' favorite wildflowers. I had been hoping for a Calliope Hummingbird, which I have seen there before, but--nope! 6/21/20 My website: www.sparhawkphotography.com
I took a little birding trip up into the San Jacinto Mountains a couple of days ago. I spent some time hiking around Lake Fulmor, a small mountain lake at about 5400 feet elevation. I hadn't been there for several years (the road up was closed for a couple of years to repair extensive damage from heavy rains one winter). It was so great being in the mountains--it was fairly birdy, with lots of butterflies and some dragonflies. It just reopened recently, and it was just the break I needed after being at home way too much! 6/20/20 My website: www.sparhawkphotography.com
