Instead, enjoy this scene from the countryside of Illinois. Yes, Illinois can be flat and full of corn (and soybean) fields, but often the sky stretches for what seems like an eternity.

This photo reminds me of parts of Southern Ontario…farmers’ fields & whatnot. Makes for great star gazing!
Very nice, very moody.
Perfect catch! happy weekend! Hope you’ll visit mine too….
Looks good to me! I guess Ike had something to do with everything being a little out of whack. Was even felt in Canada, so I heard…
Cheers, Klaus
No birds needed it is still a good photo, thanks for sharing.
Beautiful SWF photo. The horizon seems to stretch for eternity, great perspective!

Lovely landscape pic with wild flower at the foreground, leafless trees in the middle and cloudy backgroud. Friday mood.

One beautiful aspect of the universe stretching out to greet another!
No bird but a beautiful landscape shot. Your other bird shots are so beautiful.
A beautiful view…
I notice this week that we still had both House Martins and Sand Martins flying around feeding…. the swallows and swifts seem to have move on from around here…. I have heard and seen geese flying over, another thing which I noticed last week was that the ‘tits’ are grouping for winter now…. we normally see this later in the year but last week I saw ‘Great, Blue, Coal and Long Tailed Tits flirting in the tree tops and moving fron tree to tree in groups of around 20-30 birds. Starlings are more in number as well now.
Ooh, this is gorgeous. We can wait for the birds in flight in exchange for this. Although the birds will be stunning too, I’m sure. I love the detail and clarity of this photo. Great SWF post!
A beautiful scene that makes me want to jump in. Excellent SWf post.
Great SWF pick Eddie, even without the birds. I’m sure we’ll be seeing them soon.
