Jo Daviess fylke

Illinois

A pair of hot air balloons glowing on Lake Galena. The ice was 3 feet thick when I took this picture. Galena on the Fly Hot Air Balloons is a must for anyone visiting the Galena area. You will be glad you did it!
Taken at Millers Landing across from Palisades Park. In the late Spring Bald Eagles start to migrate through looking for areas of open ice to fish. In cold Winters they are always common around open water. They always strike me as huge birds when I get close to them.
Andy Williams at Galena on the Fly has some of the most beautiful scenery for his balloon. If he knows I am taking pictures he will use gas to get the balloon to glow which makes an amazing difference in the image. If you to Galena a balloon ride with Andy is a must.
A great sunset on an early Winter day got interesting very quickly when a flock of geese came through. The colors on this night were beautiful.
One of my favorite bluejay shots. Although common these birds are very beautiful, loud and aggresive. The Fall mating call is so sweet and soft compared to the usual cry.
