It was a gorgeous afternoon yesterday, so I had to go outside and take a walk while admiring the views of the snow-covered Wasatch Mountain Range.<\/p>\n

I’d been cooped up for days on end plus I had binged watched the entire series of “Anne with a E”. I had no idea when I started watching it that it was 27 episodes and while I loved it, I had sat still for far too long. Three days to be precise.<\/p>\n

I was enjoying the views of the snow-covered mountains and I hoped to get a few bird photos while I walked. Unfortunately a young man decided to ride a noisy mini-bike around the pond which got all of the birds stirred up. The geese and ducks were quacking, honking, taking flight and and those that stayed were way out in the middle of the pond.<\/p>\n

So I decided to take photos of the gorgeous snowy Wasatch Mountain Range, the clouds, the sky, and the lovely afternoon light.<\/p>\n

I did take a few images of birds including this landing Canada Goose with the snow-covered mountain range behind it. The goose joined the others milling around in the center of the pond.<\/p>\n

The play of the sunlight and shadows on the mountain peaks drew my eyes to them time after time. I also thought that the dark clouds over the mountains added a bit of drama to the scenery.<\/p>\n

I will have snowy views of the Wasatch Mountain Range<\/span><\/a> for several months and perhaps that will give me some incentive to study and learn the names of all the various peaks. That is, unless birds distract me, which they always seem to do.<\/p>\n

Stretching my legs and soaking up these fantastic mountain views while the sun was shining was invigorating and just what I needed. This morning the clouds have moved back in but I know that these views are only hidden by the clouds.<\/p>\n

Life is<\/em> good.<\/p>\n
