Once again thank you very much for visits, favorite and comments. It's much appreciated.
If you look larger, you may see the male loon's beak is full of lake bottom detritus which he is throwing about in the very first stages of nest-building. Maybe this is just practice because there is simply not enough land here to support a nest. He since decided on a more appropriate and secluded spot. Oh, and I know it's the "he" because the male loon always selects the site for the nest..

I didn't know what these tiny flowers were so I looked them up and found out that they are called False Garlic. Those 4 blooms could almost be covered with a quarter and each bloom is dime sized or smaller!

False Creek is a short inlet in the heart of Vancouver. It separates downtown from the rest of the city. It was named by George Henry Richards during his Hydrographic survey of 1856-63. George Richards named False Creek during his survey of the coast in the mid-19th century. While traveling along the south side of the Burrard Inlet, he thought he was traversing a creek; upon discovering his error, he gave the waterway its modern name. Wikipedia
The Burrard Bridge (also referred to as the Burrard Street Bridge) is a five-lane, Art Deco style, steel truss bridge constructed in 1930-1932 in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The high, five part bridge on four piers spans False Creek, connecting downtown Vancouver with Kitsilano via connections to Burrard Street on both ends. It is one of three bridges crossing False Creek.
Thank-you for all the overwhelming support and many friendships. Wishing you all health during this difficult time.
Stay Healthy
Happy New Year

Funny how a picture can lie. Looks like I've taken this picture from some remote area, when in fact I'm in the middle of a very populated part of Washington State. Just happen to be from this spot, and the right amount of zoom on my lens, no buildings or signs of people are visible.
This is Mount Rainier, and was taken when traffic on WA-167 in Pacific, Washington stopped (it's does that a lot). Looking at my map I'd say the distance is about 40 miles "as the crow flys". (If a crow ever flew in a straight line, what a strange saying when you think about it.) Went from Pacific to Bellingham WA and now on my way to Denver. Hopefully I'll have a few photo ops on the way.

I believe that this is a False Potato Beetle. I was out doing macro photography yesterday and when I came home this beauty was on my front door. It was like it was waiting for me. I moved it to my garden and got some photos before it disappeared. Photographed in Maryland..
The false deathcap (Amanita citrina) is distinguished from the true deathcap by its bulbous base and smell of raw potatoes. It is an edible species, though not nearly tasty enough to warrant the worry of mistaking it for its notorious cousin. Be very, very sure of your identification skills if you plan to eat it!

I have never seen the lake freeze completely over in one night, but record cold temps of -4F/-20C last night did the job. There was no ice at all when I went to bed. I don't expect it to last, however, as a bright sun even now looks to be working on it and the forecast actually calls for a few days in the 40sF/4-5C ahead...as mentioned previously, a range we have yet to see at all this year.
This sunset was photographed from Mountainside, Gordon's Bay looking across False Bay towards Table mountain, Cape Town, South Africa.
After our recent rains, a few stands of the pretty pink false foxglove have appeared in the field. They are attractive to several bees as well as one specific bee fly...
Often a sky like this predicts rain but yesterday we had top temperature in the country which is not easy when we are closer to the South Pole than almost all other cities. Our friend eats breakfast with this view every day but is moving soon to another part of the city. She wanted me to get a sunrise picture and me wanting to help a lady finally got myself there on a day with a sunrise :)
