Spring has been very slow to visit our lovely state. As a matter of fact, it is still snowing in some northern regions of the state. Nonetheless, some spring ephemerals are coming and going throughout the St. Croix river valley. The following is a small collection of images captured this week.

Hey John...
Thanks a lot for the comments.. I think the jack in the pulpit suffered from poor jpeg conversion... the print is much softer than the web image... I need to be more careful when I post.

BTW... the owl is a Great Horned Owl Chick.

I look forward to shooting with you this summer!
regards,
bruce

Very nice capture of the owl Bruce. Of course the others are "not to shabby" either.

Great owl pose, Bruce, and beautiful colors especially in the last shot.
