Memories of Canola
Love those Canola fields
Layers
Layers of colour
Hiding in the Canola field
Storm clouds over Canola
I LOVE Canola
Old barn in a field of canola
Splash of colour
Treasures in the yellow strip
Glorious Canola
The yellow has bloomed!
The far side of the river valley
Light over the Canola fields
Yay, it's Canola time!
Red barn in a field of gold
Before harvest time
Juvenile European Starling

Driving in a sea of gold
Vesper Sparrow
Dressed in gold
Blanket of gold
Layers of colour
I did it ... I finally did it!
Lovely while it lasted
It's that time of year again
Remembering Canola
A dose of yellow
In fields of gold
Red in a sea of yellow
Canola
Fields of gold

"Eyebrows" to match the Canola bokeh
Note: this is my main image today, i.e. the very last photo that I uploaded. Hopefully, my three photos won't be seen in a different order, as has been happening the last few weeks for some people.
Almost a month ago, on 6 July 2015, the weather forecast looked good for the High River area, SE of Calgary. However, when I got there, the sky was overcast, the distant Rocky Mountains had completely disappeared, and the light was not good for taking photos. For some reason, all the birds, including the Ibis near the blind at Frank Lake, were unusually active, which didn't help!
There were three things that I thought I would try and photograph - yellow Canola fields, any kind of bird sitting on a fence post with Canola behind it, and an Eared Grebe with young ones on her back. Managed the first two, but there was just the one Grebe near the blind but too far to photograph when she had a single baby on her back. Luckily, this little Savannah Sparrow decided to land on a fence post at the edge of the road. I always love the way their yellow "eyebrows" match the colour of the Canola bokeh. I was also lucky to find several close White-faced Ibis at a slough NE of Frank Lake. So, just a short trip, but an enjoyable one.
