Mike's "Best of Q1"

I had a lot of fun this winter-spring getting up on Sunday morning and going out while the traffic was still light. I think my best picture this quarter was actually the one of the Valmont building in the snow, but lets not remember all that snow!

I got to snoop around the ghost towns of Portal and Chalco.  Found old rickety barns and farmsteads.

Today I captured red wing blackbirds that migrate through the area and camp out in a bog in front of the Family Video store on 168th and Harrison.  I usually only see them for a short time, and have to wait until next year.  I do not know if they nest here, or move further North.
