Like Tina, I am no flower expert, so I often don't know what a flower is called when I see it. But I always try to get photos of new flowers, and new versions of old ones. I think that my very favorite flower is the azalea that my real estate agent gave me for …

Not far from home is the Narbeck Wetland Trail, consisting of boardwalk and earthen trails around ponds and general wetland. I found most of the wetland dried up this afternoon. Here's what I saw. Used to be wet (above). Unauthorized trail. Leaf mosaic on the pond surface. Here's the Link to Terri's Original Post.
These are only the ones I caught in photos. The Townsend's Warbler came by, but I didn't have the camera ready. Steller's Jay. Visit my Rumble site for video. There are two Juncos in the photo. Can you find them both? Again, video on Rumble This little Red-breasted Nuthatch is one of my favorites, and …

Aside …

This week, Tina has sent us on a guided treasure hunt, with a list of subjects to capture with our cameras. I think I can find them all. Here we go! First on the list is A Pet. My readers will all know that I have a profusion of photos of our pet (owner), Kikyo …

These two photos have absolutely nothing to do with each other. The first one was captured at a used-car dealer I visited this afternoon. The car next to me pulled in just as I was turning off the engine. It belongs to an employee there. The dealer does not handle cars like this one. Isn't …
At age 73, I still don't think of myself as "over the hill". However, I have taken some hills in my long life. Here in Western Washington, we are hemmed in by the Cascade Mountains to the East, and we cross them often. On the way to Stevens Pass, the road winds by Mount Index. …
