Tree Swallows at Black Butte, Oregon
Among the many colorful things to enjoy at Black Butte Ranch in Central Oregon are the Tree Swallows that swoop for insects over the horse pasture, and occasionally take a break on the fence along the bike trail.
The Flycatcher
To describe my lifelong fascination with flight and with creatures that fly I like to echo the words of John James Audubon who in 1839 wrote of himself as "...one who never can cease to admire and to study with zeal and the most heartfelt reverence, the wonderful productions of an Almighty Creator."
