With the snow on the ground, and the white mid-afternoon sky, my eyes were dazzled. I couldn't see anything but his shape. Good thing the camera saw colour. |
He moved to a higher branch to get a better look at me. And my hands were empty, except for the camera; no treats to share. When I left, he didn't follow me. |
More dam and campsite photos tomorrow.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Fuí a mirar la presa a media isla, y el campamento público situada justo a sus pies. Todo estaba en silencio, abandonado y cubierto de nieve, pero mientras exploraba los bosques, me halló una chara de Steller, y se quedó observándome, sin duda esperando para ver si traía alguna cosa de comer, como los visitantes en el verano. Lo siento —le dije —no vengo preparada.
Cuando por fin regresé al carro, no me siguió.
Con lo blanco tan brillante de la nieve y un cielo con nubes igualmente blancos, mis ojos estaban deslumbrados, y no pude ver más que la forma del pájaro, y nada de color. Por suerte, la cámara ve mejor que yo.
Habrá más fotos de la presa y campamento mañana.

I'm having to moderate all comments because Blogger seems to have a problem notifying me. Sorry about that. I will review them several times daily, though, until this issue is fixed.
Also, I have word verification on, because I found out that not only do I get spam without it, but it gets passed on to anyone commenting in that thread. Not cool!
