A Rainy Day Brings a Big Surprise to the Top of the Star

A Rainy Day Brings a Big Surprise to the Top of the Star

Down the street from my house is a huge ranch, Fasination Ranch, and the front of it has these tall hills facing the street below. High on the top of one of these hills is a large pole and the owners have this beautiful and enourmous star that flashes blue at night.

 

Today we were having heavy rains all day. While driving home, I noticed the pole had a visitor on the top of it. Yes, a large red-tailed hawk was perched on top.

 

 

A Rainy Day Brings a Big Surprise to the Top of the Star

The rain didn't seem to phase him so I stopped and rolled the window down and took a few pictures. He was so cute just perched up there so high and just looking side to side while standing on one leg.

 

Have you ever noticed how the rain seems to give us some great nature shots. Today at the Pumkin patch in Yucaipa, I was driving on the freeway and there were these 3 or 4 huge cows eating the pumpkins. i wish I could have taken a picture but was driving in pouring down rain with practically zero visability. I am surprised I even saw them. i am going back tomorrow to see if those cows are still there. I will have my camera ready.

Also, on my way home from our ActiveRain meetup this morning; in the pouring rain I spotted a hawk on the top of the lamppost on the freeway but the interesting thing was that he had his wings opened like he was protecting something underneath. It was such a unique shot and again I was driving in pouring rain but it made me smile just thinking about it.

Hi Kristin, Great photo! You have a great eye for spotting birds and things in nature!  Don't you hate it when you are not able to get a photo because you are driving, like those pumpkin eating cows!

Hi Gloria,

Yes it drives me crazy and we drove by today but it was getting dark and I had my older camera so it just didn't give me a good picture. Tomorrow morning I am going to drive to the pumpkin patch and try to get close enough to the cows. Getting the pics from the freeway is impossible when I am the driver.

Hi Roy,

I am fasinated by raptor birds so I always like to stop and take pictures of them even in the rain. Happy Holidays.
