Savannah Sparrow on a lupine near Seward, Alaska.

Even though I have photographed this spot a lot over the years, I can’t help returning to this wonderful little field of wildflowers near my home, especially on a perfect morning like it was today!

Anza-Borrego Photos

Font’s Point, Anza-Borrego Desert State Park, California.

We have been working our way through the adjusting, key-wording and finally adding our photos from our last trip to our website.  We just updated our section of Anza-Borrego photos from our time spent there this spring.

We now have a lot of coverage of this beautiful desert, too bad few people outside of Southern California have heard of the place.  Heck, I come across people in So Cal who haven’t heard of it – but then again, the relatively low visitors numbers is one of the things I like about the place.

Kermode Bear Killed

Kermode Bear

A white colored black bear near Skagway, Alaska.  These white colored bears are also known as Kermode, Spirit or Ghost Bears.

Certainly one of my highlights last summer was spotting and photographing this rare bear.  You may have remembered me writing about it here:  Spirit Bear.   The local residents were so excited to have such a rare bear around, that they lobbied and convinced the State Board of Game to pass a law protecting the taking of a white black bear.Read More
