I've been trying for a long time to think of how to get a tricky focus shot of this log by the Mission Creek Greenway. This still isn't right but it is the best I've been able to come up with so far.
An American Elk seen at the Greater Vancouver Zoo in Aldergrove, British Columbia. He was not stuck or in trouble but was playing with this log.
American Elk are the largest of the elk family, weighing up to 500 kilograms. Every spring, male elk begin to grow a new pair of antlers. (24-02-16-0730)
This happens to me a lot. I never get photos of something, and then suddenly I get different opportunities, miles apart. Here are some more red-eared slider turtles all out on a fallen tree in the pond near Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco.

The forecast of some impending wet weather means that I will probably have to curb my weir wading for a while! This was made a few days ago at Beeston Weir, when there was a nice balance of water flowing over it. I managed to reach this stranded log and set up my tripod on some solid ground. That's not as daft as it sounds, because the weir is actually quite spongy from all the plant growth and setting the tripod legs firmly is essential for longer exposures such as this.
A better view of the quilt top I bought yesterday. I removed the ugly border and the thick batting. It was tied in the yellow centers so some of them are ripped and need replacing. It's hand pieced and will someday be hand quilted. It's got to wait in line.
After reading comments on my previous photo I thought some of you would like to see a close-up of the end of a petrified log. Some of these were about 3 feet in diameter, and the colors vary in different logs. None of the wood is left. They are like huge gem-stones.
The Historic Log was one of a batch which was stored behind a dam further upstream - probably in the 1920's.
When the water was released, the log rushed downstream, became stuck in the mud and was abandoned until local contractor Hallett's Enterprises Ltd hauled it out of the river and positioned it on this Dray,

Tharp's Log is a hollowed giant sequoia log at Log Meadow in the Giant Forest grove of Sequoia National Park that was used as a shelter by early pioneers. The log is named after Hale Tharp, who was described as the first non-Native American to enter the Giant Forest. Tharp established a small summer cattle ranch in the area and used the log as a cabin. The log was hollowed by fire through fifty-five feet of its seventy-foot length. A fireplace, door and window exist at the wider end, with a small shake-covered cabin extension.[2] John Muir described it as a "noble den".[3]

Raisch Cabin is one of the oldest structures in Mercer County and sits along the Erie Extension Canal. It’s a log cabin originally owned by Frederick Raisch now located at the Sharpsville Area Recreation Park.
The log cabin, originally built in Hermitage before the year 1810, was moved here in the 1970s after it was discovered while another house was being demolished.
The house is now owned by the Mercer County Historical Society. It took more than two years to restore this cabin after it was relocated.
It’s considered the oldest building in Mercer County.
