My Favorite Image of 2012
Looking back over my images of 2012 it was very difficult to pick out my favorite images because there were way too many that I liked for a variety of reasons.Some were of my family and I cherish them deeply. Others were of my pets that I love.Many had my favorite bird or mammal in them. My final decision narrowed down to one of the images that I worked the hardest for.I had envisioned a Bullocks Oriole with out of focus flowers in the background for a couple of weeks after I had some start coming to my bird feeders out in the Little Lake Valley near to where I live in Northern California.In the weeks that followed I really worked hard spending hours in the blind at a time to make that image happen.
So here it is again. A Bullocks Oriole.
God's love and blessings to all,
chris
