James Shonka Photo Blog
Welcome to my Photo Blog. I'll try to mix it up, there are lots of different types of photography. Much of what I photograph is in the landscape category. My passion regarding nature started as a boy. The Cascade mountains of Washington were where my father introduced me to hiking and fishing. Watching a bald eagle use its strong talons to pluck a large trout out of the water was the kind of experience that had to be part of my future. I hope you enjoy my photo-journey.

I am told that dogs live in the present and when you, as the owner, leave them they don't know that you are coming back. Now you know why they are so excited to see you when you do return. This dog was so excited to see it's master.

Weighing In At Less Than A Penny
I didn't believe it myself but it's true. Some Hummingbirds do weigh less than a penny. Some do weigh more. Whether this Hummingbird weighs in at less than a penny or not, the view is certainly worth more than that, right?

Hummingbird Chillin
I had the best time yesterday. My friend Claud and his family had a Memorial celebration and while I was there Claud mentioned he had about twenty Hummingbirds on the property. I shot about 400 images, this is one of them. Enjoy.

Mom Makes A Baker's Dozen
This was an amazing view. Mom Mallard taking care of a dozen ducklings. The ducklings listened good, mom would quack and all twelve would race close to her.
