The Garni Gorge is situated 23 km east of Yerevan, Armenia, just below the village with the same name. On a promontory above the gorge the first-century AD Garni temple may be seen. Along the sides of the gorge are cliff walls of well-preserved basalt columns, carved out by the Goght River. This portion of the Garni Gorge is typically referred to as the "Symphony of the Stones." It is most easily reached via a road that leads left down the gorge just before reaching the temple of Garni. Another road leads to the gorge through the village, down a cobblestone road, and into the valley. Once in the valley, turning right will lead to Garni Gorge, an 11th-century medieval bridge, and the "Symphony of the Stones". Taking a left will lead along the river past a fish hatchery, up to the Khosrov Forest State Reserve, and a little further Havuts Tar Monastery.
This is the rare black form of Mourning Wheatear that may well be a full species in its own right. It only occurs in the basalt desert on the border of Syria and Jordan, and even there it is scarce. It is considered to be a Mourning Wheatear seemingly because it shares white wing flashes with that species. I have never seen typical Mourning Wheatear anywhere near the Basalt populations, but apparently occasional wanderers have hybridised with Basalt Wheatear. The song sounded different to Mourning Wheatear but I did not record it.
STOP PRESS: 14 years later in June 2021 the IOC announced that Basalt Wheatear is split from the Mourning Wheatear, and is now known as Oenanthe warriae.
While on the way to Nelson, we briefly stopped to look at some pillow basalts that are part of an ophialite sequence.
Seal Rocks on the Oregon Coast are basalt remnants of an ancient lava flow that originated in what is now eastern Oregon. When the lava flowed west it followed the channel of the Columbia River, which used to enter the Pacific south of present-day Newport. The eroded basalt rocks of Seal Rocks are the oldest of these Columbia River lava flows. Other flows include Yaquina Head, Cape Foulwesther, Cascade Head, Cape Lookout, Cape Meares, Cape Falcon, and Tillamook Head. This is an HDR of the rocks made Saturday morning.
The path out to the quarry resembles basalt cobblestone. The rocks here are the same as those that made up the lava lake at Round Top. Geologists think they might have broken into small pieces after an eruption emptied the lake, but left its hardened surface intact. The hard lava collapsed into the void left behind by the eruption, breaking into millions of pieces.
