Photo Phriday: A Kansas Sunset

I spent the afternoon and evening before I went to Greensburg touring one of Kansas's most vital wetlands: Quivira National Wildlife Refuge. Wetlands are crucial for many kinds of wildlife, especially migratory birds who rely on wetlands to find food as they migrate. Quivira is one of the biggest and most important in the plains region. 

Visiting late in the day, I had the place almost all to myself - I only saw one other car while I was there. This sense of tranquility followed me throughout the evening. My last stop was the largest lake in the Refuge at its far northern end, where I watched the sunset across the water. My attention was caught by this interesting cloud, which almost seemed to radiate out from the setting sun.
