In this photo one can see the frost line Monday night, as well as the burn scar from last summer.

Supermoon Saturday
I don’t really have the equipment to do justice to the perigree full moon that rose on Saturday. For betters, go to the Big Picture collection of photos.
Obligatory Spring Photo of Hummingbird
We’ve had our feeds up for a week or so, but I haven’t had a chance to take the camera out to the deck before today. For those who do not live in Colorado, this is a Broad-tailed male, our most frequently seen species of hummingbird.

Downtown Denver from Sloans Lake
Sloans Lake had its start when a farmer named Sloan dug a well in 1861. Overnight, the water spilled out of the well and started forming a lake. Some people jokingly called the body of water Sloan’s Leak. It is now a Denver City Park.
Sunrise Calm
We had strong high winds last night, which at least had the silver lining of a gorgeous sunrise. So far, the winds haven’t resumed here yet as of noon, though we are under a high wind warning until 3:00 am Thursday morning. Denver Airport is currently running 90 minutes late due to high winds. They have to use a special pattern of runways when the winds are this severe. One of the Denver news channels has a photo of a semi which was overturned by the winds on I-25 in south Denver.

Icy Mesh
I love the pattern of the hoar frost on the mesh fence.
