I know it's really not the best shot, but the light was absolutely horrible. This is my first ever shot of this species, and also the first time I've ever seen one for longer than a second.

This species is honestly bigger than I had really imagined; kinda hard to believe, really, where the phrase "skinny as a rail" really originates from ;).

good birding,

Jonah

Also know as: common dormouse

Scientific name: Muscardinus avellanarius

This is the first dormouse I have ever seen, they are very rare in my part of the UK, shame the brambles got in the way and hopefully next time I will get a much better picture, but still really excited just to have seen it.

Thank you for taking the time to stop by, your comments or criticism is very much appreciated, take care,stay safe and have a wonderful weekend my flickr friends 😊

I know, I know, another Rainier shot. Told ya I was out! :-)

taken just after the alpenglow died off, liked this spot better but just missed that golden couple minutes. taken above Shadow Lake, Sunrise area.

I put a box where the climbers are, unfortunately on here you can only see the blazed trail, but in lightroom I can see them well enough to count them. :-)

I was able to put the cropped version in comments, kinda cool.

Yes, I know about "how cute" and "who can resist?" We had her over a couple of times and she does know us. Even more, she seems to see us as part of her family. In fact, I believe that she regards herself as a "child" belonging to a family of humans. She made it perfectly clear that she has certain expectations in terms of participating in our social life, eating our kind of food - almost asking for equality and fair play. Now my question is, how does evolution work in this case? Did dogs evolve to bond with humans? Did humans develop affinity to dogs? Or, is there a process of mutual co-evolution or even co-assimilation?

“Man can never know the loneliness a woman knows. Man lies in the woman's womb only to gather strength, he nourishes himself from this fusion, and then he rises and goes into the world, into his work, into battle, into art. He is not lonely. He is busy. The memory of the swim in amniotic fluid gives him energy, completion. Woman may be busy too, but she feels empty. Sensuality for her is not only a wave of pleasure in which she is bathed, and a charge of electric joy at contact with another. When man lies in her womb, she is fulfilled, each act of love a taking of man within her, an act of birth and rebirth, of child rearing and man bearing. Man lies in her womb and is reborn each time anew with a desire to act, to be. But for woman, the climax is not in the birth, but in the moment man rests inside of her.”

― Anaïs Nin, The Diary of Anaïs Nin, Vol. 1: 1931-1934

You know, the full moon whispered to me that day...

"I wanted you to see me...

... that's why I was shining."

from the movie "An"

dir. by Naomi Kawase

I know that you've been hurt before and

You hide your face with your disguise

'Cause someone filled your head with lies

But you don't have to worry this time

No, you don't have to worry

'Cause I would never let you down

I will never let you fade away another day

Don't run away, run away

Everyone knows that most agricultural products require the fields to change every season, meaning you need to let fields sit fallow sometimes, to rest. The same is true at the Wooden Show Tulip Farm. Every year the tulips are in a different field. They have one field that lines up particularly well with Mt. Hood, that's the field they used this year. The last time this field was used was when they shut down the whole event for Covid. It's been about 6 years since the public got to see flowers in this field.

I had the treat this year of having my son greet me there, he worked at the event this year, his first job. He is also know getting into photography, so we were shooting side by side, how neat is that?

Let me know what you think if this one, my wife liked it, which means it had tons of color (she only likes the colorful shots).

Important to know: Iguanas are capable of severely injuring people, other animals and themselves when their body language messages are not recognized. Most iguanas clearly sign that trouble is ahead. They nod their head and wave their dewlap side to side.

The dewlap is a fold of loose skin hanging from the neck or throat of an animal, like a cow. Iguanas use their dewlap to communicate. First, an extended dewlap can simply be a greeting. An extended dewlap is often used to say hello to another creature during mating and most generally as a territorial sign. Second, it can be a form of protection. A threatened iguana may extend its dewlap to intimidate a predator into thinking it is much larger than it is. Third, an extended dewlap may be a sign that the iguana is trying to adjust its temperature. An extended dewlap on an iguana basking in the sun is quite normal. It may be catching sun to warm up or catching a breeze to cool off. So it's important to consider "the big picture" when reading an Iguana's body language.

I know, this shot breaks the cardinal rule of dog photography - Never compose a shot with a tree growing out of the dog's head. But I just loved the happy expression on Jasper's face as we ran through the green space. An in my defense, this was shot blind as I ran with the camera dangling low (see the shadow) so I didn't really compose the shot, the composition just happened. Not my fault 😜

If you have lost a loved one, know that because of the Conservation of Energy, their energy has not died. Remember the First Law of Thermodynamics; that no energy gets created in the universe, and none is destroyed. All their energy, every vibration, every BTU of heat, every wave of every particle that was your loved one remains with you in this world. Know that amid energies of the cosmos, they gave as good as they got.

According to the Law of the Conservation of Energy, not a bit of them is gone; they're just less orderly.

It's funny how such creatures, simplistic in so many ways, can inhabit personalities more complex and deep by comparison to the shallow, murky waters of the WalMart kiddie pools that some human beings are made of. He was my shadow, my sentinel, my buddy, my pal. Little did I know that this Valentine's Day gift from an ex would lead to a lasting companionship who's absence is felt, even to this day.

Some people would scoff and say "Oh, it's just a cat." As heartless as those people are, he was so much more than the sum of himself. He probably would've followed me through the Gates of Hell and back, if I'd let him... and give them a piece of his mind in the process, since he was a chatterbox.

Where people would often fail, he would succeed.

Rest in peace, buddy.

I'm a good girl with a lot of bad habits.

I know, I know - I‘ve been uploading like a maniac. But that‘s just because… well, I‘m a maniac, I guess. Hope it doesn‘t mean quantity over quality for the most part. I‘m using quite a few of these different lenses for upcoming articles as well. So it looks like I‘ll be busy for a while!

Some of you may know that I shot infrared film (mostly Kodak HIE IR) for many years, many years ago. From time to time some here have asked about this and whether I could post some images. Well, I have posted some in the past, but will do so again, and put them in an IR folder. But also, I find that analog IR images do not hold up very well when posted, but I will try to post some regardless!

Certains d'entre vous savent peut-être que j'ai tourné des films infrarouges (principalement Kodak HIE IR) pendant de nombreuses années, il y a de nombreuses années. De temps en temps, certains ici m'ont demandé à ce sujet et si je pouvais poster des images. Eh bien, j'en ai posté quelques-uns dans le passé, mais je le ferai à nouveau et je les mettrai dans un dossier IR. Mais aussi, je trouve que les images IR analogiques ne tiennent pas très bien une fois postées, mais je vais essayer d'en poster quand même !

No one knows.

I can't count the times

I almost said what's on my mind

But I didn't

And just the other day

I wrote down all the things I'd say

But I couldn't

I just couldn't

Baby, I know that you've been wonderin'

Mm, so here goes nothin'

In case you didn't know

Baby, I'm crazy 'bout you

And I would be lyin' if I said

That I could live this life without you

Even though

I don't tell you all the time

You had my heart a long, long time ago

In case you didn't know

The way you look tonight

That second glass of wine

That did it

Mm

There was somethin' 'bout that kiss

Girl, it did me in

Got me thinkin'

I'm thinkin'

One of the things that I've been feelin'

it's time you hear 'em

In case you didn't know

Baby, I'm crazy 'bout you

And I would be lyin' if I said

That I could live this life without you

Even though

I don't tell you all the time

You had my heart a long, long time ago

In case you didn't know

You got all of me

I belong to you

Yeah, you're my everything

City Dove

By Laleh

I don’t know what it’s all about

But every time I look around

All I see is how we’re holding on

Don’t ask me what’s wrong or right

I don’t even know the time

All I know is I’m holding on

I haven’t figured anything out

I haven’t figured anything, anything, anything out

I haven’t figured anything out

I haven’t figured anything, anything, anything out

City dove

Fly between the buildings and fences

Soft inside but rough on the edges

Waiting here for something to come

It just holding on, it just holding on

City dove

Fly between the stars and the headlights

Passing by the clouds and the street signs

Knowing that there’s something to come

It just holding on, it just holding on

It just holding on

I don’t really know my fate

I just know I’m on my way

There will be mistakes, movin’ on

I try to get to the heart of it

Fly low but looking for heaven

Oh, I know, I know I’m holding on

I won’t figure everything out

I’ll never figure everything out

You’ll never figure everything out

No, no, no, no

I won’t figure everything out

I’ll never figure everything, everything, everything out

City dove

Fly between the buildings and fences

Soft inside but rough on the edges

Waiting here for something to come

You just holding on, you just holding

City dove

Fly between the stars and the headlights

Passing by the clouds and the street signs

Knowing that there’s something to come

You just holding on, you just holding on

City dove

Fly between the buildings and fences

Soft inside but rough on the edges

Waiting here for something to come

You just holding on (You just holding on), you just holding

City dove

Fly between the stars and the headlights

Passing by the clouds and the street signs

Knowing that there’s something to come

You just holding on, you just holding on

You’ll never figure everything out

Did you know that during Autumn, we have a changing of the leaves in Florida also? Of course, not to the extent to the states north of us, but we do have a significant change. (More so in North Florida)

This picture was taken in Chipley, Florida. Many, many years ago, I would swim in this lake as a young fellow. It is known as Blue Lake Park and is a very nice place for families who want to have a picnic and go swimming. There is playground equipment for children too.

I'm sure you will notice the moon already coming out.

One more thing - I live about one mile from here and am able to take my grandchildren here for them to enjoy it as much as I did when I was their age.

Thank you for taking the time to read this...

Greetings: Ramsa Luv

I always know when autumn is upon us. The days grow shorter, a chill electrifies the air, and the camellia sasanquas in my hedge in my rear garden start to flower. Well, there may me no chill in the air - quite the contrary actually - however my camellias are budding and the first perfect bloom has appeared.

My "Plantation Pink" camellia sasanqua is always the first of my camellias to blossom in Autumn out of the specimens in my camellia hedge at the rear of my garden, and it seems to have thrown almost overnight. Where yesterday there were tight buds, today there are crepe like blooms.

Vigorous and fast growing, Camellia Sasanqua “Plantation Pink” is an upright evergreen shrub with masses of large sweetly scented single to semi-double, soft pink flowers and a wonderful centre of golden yellow stamens. The blooms occur over quite a long period between March and June in the Southern Hemisphere which makes them very popular. They are often used for hedges or to cover walls.

Dear Humans. Now you know how I feel. Now you know why I cry for you to lemmeowt, to open a window or a door. Now you know.

Stay safe, keep others safe, stay inside.

what these strange bugs are??? They're all over my hosta stems and on this vine... they started out like a small white jumping bug... and today they look like this!!!

Well, I know I’ve never been to Spain, can’t say for sure about this little guy, though, what with all the worm holes and Ley Lines in my yard. Actually, he looks a lot like Michelle’s, so the wormhole thing would not surprise me. This could have easily turned into a silhouette shot but with the help of Lightroom I was able to make a beauty shot out of it. So, we started spring with a Robin and we are concluding summer with a Robin. As per usual, there are ten thousand different ways to present this, but I decided to keep cropping to a minimum because I fell in love with the leaves. But as the song says Oklahoma, Arizona, what does it matter …
