As promised, I went out with my camera yesterday, and it was gorgeous. Cold, though, and eventually I got hungry, so I had to call it, but there was just so much to photograph. It’s cloudy today, but I’d love to get back out there. We’ll see.
Anyway, with our sketch comedy revue Me Inside Me Presents: “Neurotrash” opening tomorrow night, I’m going to conserve my energy and share some photos. Enjoy!
No idea what this bird is, got a super-fast grab shot. It was pretty large. For Illinois.
Apparently this nest belongs to a pair of hawks, and there are chicks in it! I saw no evidence of that, though.
I’ve got a ton more, which may get used at some point. It was a great day for shooting, the light was really warm.
And next time I see you, we’ll have had our first show! I’ll be giving you the details on Tuesday, because Monday is the next installment of The Continuing Story of Jane Storegoer and the Cone of Evil! Remember, if you sign up for the newsletter, you get the episode early. Happy weekend to all!

Beautiful photos. Spring just calls out to the camera, doesn’t it?

Thanks! It really does, I just love the spring flowers. And the birds were out and about too. Except those hawks.
Or maybe that was the problem.

Lovely pictures! I wish it was sunny here. On my drive home today I saw a hawk sitting in the grass and I wished that 1. I was not driving and 2. I had a camera. But I admired it for the 2 seconds I could see it before my car was past.

Thanks! I sometimes see one near the expressway in a tree, and I swear it’s just watching the traffic go by. I swear I see the best things when I have no camera. It really makes me wish I could paint sometimes.

Pretty photos. Looks like your Chicago spring is a bit behind ours in Delaware, not surprisingly. Wishing you the best with “Neurotrash.”
