  Natural Phenomena
It's been a while, so here are some interesting nature pictures I've gotten over the last few months.
This was taken about three months ago, just around the corner. There aren't a lot of birds that do hanging nests, but I'm not sure which one it is.
The donut shop where we go Saturday mornings has the habit of tossing broken bits out the drive-up window. The grackles know this, and show up pretty much like clockwork. One of these days I'm going to just stake them out for a while, because I really want to get more good bird-in-flight pictures.
Speaking of bird-in-flight pictures, this hawk-in-snow shot came from late February, out at Triple Creek farm.
March was unseasonably warm this year in Kansas. This unidentified mammal (beaver-sized, but the tail's wrong) was spotted at Lincoln Park. We've seen it there before, too, but this time we spotted some of its tunnels.
Seen on campus during the same rainy spell that drove the mammal into the open.
During our last major wind-storm, we had a big flock of something hunkering in our trees.
Common, yes, but up close it's pretty cool looking.
 
Comments:
Common, yes, but that's a great dandelion photo. They're oddly beautiful for something we think of as a "weed."
