Photos by Barry Hass

Although the calendar has turned to spring, the dried remains of last year’s growth are still all around.

From a trip to Arches and Canyonlands National Parks in 2017.

When I photographed them a couple of weeks ago, they were four days old and each was about a foot long.

It’s that time of year.

Taken at Drumlin Farm in Lincoln.

I seem to be stuck on birds lately. They do add a splash of color to an often dreary winter landscape.

I was lucky enough to catch this guy showing off his coloration just at dusk. Although he appears to be headless, his head is hidden behind his body and right wing.

Taken from the same spot as the picture I posted on October 19th.
