Attn: Blog Followers

Amazingly to me there are 21 people who are following this blog - You folks are awesome!

Unfortunately, I'm probably going to stop updating this blog much since I've reactivated the blog attached to my gallery site (and by reactivated, I just mean I'm posting to it again).

Anyhow, I encourage all of you faithful fans to check out this post on the other blog, and follow me via Facebook or Google+ (or I suppose that wretched hive of scum and villainy - twitter)...  By the way, I'm giving away free prints - see the other blog for details!

And now... a pretty picture:

Miss January...

Ms. January (yeah, doesn't make much sense and I can't even tell you the sex of this 'ere bird, but I also can't seem to avoid the joke...)  This is the featured shot for January in my 2012 Calendar. 

I shot this in Santa Cruz at Natural Bridges State Beach where the local birds seemed quite used to people getting close - that allowed me the rare opportunity to shoot this Egret landing quite near me.

2012 Calendar

For several recent Christmases I've made calendars of my photos to give to friends and family - this year I decided that having put together a calendar, I may as well make it available to anyone interested in it - check it out: wildlandphotos.com calendar on CafePress
