Sunrise stratacrow - a photo on Flickriver

Sunrise stratacrow

            There's nothing quite like a sunrise after a southern California storm.  All kinds of varying cloud strata that catch and diffract all of the dawn light and illuminate the sky in a nearly neon display of color.  Then it's just look for a tree and wait for a bird to land.  Here it's an American crow (Corvus brachyrhynchos) in an Italian cypress.

Thanks very much for all of your views, comments, and favorites!  I'll have family visiting from out of town the next few days, but I'll catch up with everyone else's new shots soon.  Have a great rest of the weekend, everyone.
