Whatever Weds. 4 Points
Copyright ©2020 Deborah M. Zajac. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
A girlfriend and I got up early after a snowstorm in January for a sunrise photography outing and then we headed to a birding location when we came across this guy along the way.
Did you know that one the west coast it’s common to only count the points on one side of the antlers, and on Mule Deer like these you don’t count the brow tines- the ones coming above the brow?
On the east coast they count all the points. Who knew? I’ve gone with the west coast rule of thought and counted only one side. 😀
There were quite a few Doe’s too. Here’s one.
I hope you are having a lovely week. We’re halfway to the week-end! Let’s make a point of making it a good one! 😋

Friday’s Feathered Friends
Copyright ©2020 Deborah M. Zajac. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
Last week was pretty full. I went to see Baby Girl, and the Grandson’s for a couple of days then got home and had friends from out of town over for the week-end.
We went birding. I shared with them the spot where the Chick-a-dees ate from my hand we were fortunate and saw them again and they ate from our hands. It was just as fun, exciting, and awesome as it was the first time.
Two Chick-a-dees landed on my hand to get seeds and one didn’t like the idea of sharing at. all. 😂
They were quite picky about the sunflowers seeds they would take often spitting several overboard before selecting one and flying off to the trees with it.
In this image, you can see the seed and its shadow in the air in my hand that the Chick-a-dee just discarded. They all did it. Perhaps they were saving some for later?
My friend Anna was wearing a beanie which was perfect to put some seeds on it and get the Chick-a-dees to land on her cap. They did!
This was our first birding stop for the day and it was so much fun.
I’ll share other birds and wild mustangs from the week-end in future posts.
I hope you all are having a great Friday, and your week-end is a good one!

Whatever Weds. Daybreak on the Pond
Copyright ©2020 Deborah M. Zajac. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
We had 7 inches of snow last Thursday all over Carson Valley! On Friday a friend and I got up and out really early to catch the sunrise and do some birding. Before we even made it out of our gate we had to stop at the pond to catch the wonderful color and scene at the pond.
The storm blew through really fast, but oh what it left behind is so pretty!

Whatever Weds. Carson Valley Fall Morning
Copyright ©2019 Deborah M. Zajac. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
This image is one I made last week. It was a gorgeous morning so, my next-door neighbor and I headed out to look for Fall colors earlier than planned. The morning did not disappoint.
This is my favorite image from the morning. I had it printed. It’s now hanging in my living room. Do you print any of your images? If not, why not?

Whatever Weds. Fall Color
Copyright ©2019 Deborah M. Zajac. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED
Fall color has been a bit patchy here, but last week a friend and I found a little along the Carson River.
…some late bloomers,
and a Painted Lady. It’s been below freezing many nights and mornings this past week so I was surprised to see this butterfly still here.
I had a lovely visit with my Mom and Step-Dad. I hope you’re all having a good week, and are making some fun plans for the week-end. I’m going to see my Grandson’s, and my Mom once more before she heads back to warm and sunny FL, and hopefully, I’ll see some more of Falls beautiful colors and delights.
