Partly cloudy today. Joann went with friends to coffee and lunch. I headed to the river. I did the usual 4.5 miles. Another meager day of trying to photo birds. Later we took a ride up on Bostwick. Nothing!  Oh well, it is always good getting outdoors and enjoying God’s creation. I like walking in the low hills better as it’s much quieter and peaceful. But I don’t usually see any wildlife out there. If you want to be a wildlife photographer, don’t focus on western Colorado. We have much less variety of birds than even the Denver area. I’m getting to the place where photography is less of a focus when I’m out. It’s much less frustrating and in reality I’ve photographed the surrounding mountains thousands of times in all seasons and light. So, it’s time to just savor creation without the distraction of photography. Who knows, that might change tomorrow. Haha  Speaking of photographing the mountains, here’s Sneffels from January 2014
