Sunrise started with a purple sky!
I have never seen such an amazing Sunrise as I did the first morning on the Ranch!!
The sky then turned deep orange!
Clouds moved in to help with the pictures texture!
Sun peaked and the birds started vocalizing!
My last picture turned out to be my favorite!

Welcome to the mon@rch nature blog and I hope you join us in some of our nature adventures through the Allegany State Park area!
I am a naturalist, field biologist and nature photographer from the Western New York area. I have started exploring nature writing through this blog and it truly has been fun sharing my numerous adventures with everyone. Thanks to the many other authors that help me with my post and they will be sharing some of their nature explorations.
I have always had a latent interest in birds and photography and have been lucky enough to find time to explore these interests over the last few years. I am very thankful to the Cattaraugus County Bird Club for getting me started, sharing their wealth of knowledge and for their wonderful programs. And many thanks to Tom for letting me share some of my adventures and photos on the Monarch Nature Blog.
Thank you for taking the time visiting and commenting on this blog.

Up here, by the time the sun pops over the trees, the sky has already been bleached out. There, you get to see the full splendor of the sun going over that distant horizon.

The sunrise is a beautiful phenomenon of nature. It has such a overwhelming beauty that we just cant take our eyes off it. We feel the freshness of the morning & the whole day will be a good, enthusiastic day. These pictures from Texas are marvelous .
