Yay, it's Canola time!

Yesterday, 6 July 2015, the weather forecast looked good for the High River area. However, when I got there, the sky was overcast, the distant Rocky Mountains had completely disappeared, and the light was not good for taking photos. For some reason, all the birds, including the Ibis near the blind at Frank Lake, were unusually active, which didn't help!

There were three things that I thought I would try and photograph - yellow Canola fields, any kind of bird sitting on a fence post with Canola behind it, and an Eared Grebe with young ones on her back. Managed the first two, but there was just the one Grebe near the blind but too far to photograph when she had a single baby on her back. I was lucky, though, to find several close White-faced Ibis at a slough NE of Frank Lake.

Can't remember exactly where these two sheds were seen. This was only a short trip and I really didn't feel like driving around for too long, trying to find a beautiful old barn. Too many outings in the last 10 days or so, plus too much time spent on editing just a few of the photos, and very little sleep, ha.
