More of Rowdy. It has been a couple weeks! 3 January 2015
I saw Rowdy again for the first time in a couple weeks since I have not been around the house during his waking hours. Rowdy is a late riser and early closer, so I usually have to be home at some point between about, say 930am and 330pm if I am going to see him. Today was the first day in a couple weeks that I have been around the house long enough during those hours. During my time off around Christmas, I was out of town, so I didnt catch him then. At about 930am or so, I whistled him in and first spotted him on my roof after about 15 minutes or so. I photographed him at various points through the day, but my favorite was when the snow was starting to fall around 1pm or so as I got some cool portraits of him with some snowflakes collecting on his head, tail, beak, etc.
