Yes, it's a week early and it's still cold in some places. Of course, nature has her own calendar. Late this morning, it was beautifully bright and clear in Jerusalem, in the mid-50's/f.
And, it took some sliding to bring up the tones and detail here. Happy Sliders Sunday!
Black-tailed Deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus) Doe
Emigrant Lake – Jackson County – Oregon - USA
The black-tailed deer is one of nine subspecies of the mule deer. It was first recorded by the Lewis and Clark Expedition of 1804-06.
Black-tailed deer live in the temperate coniferous forests along the Pacific coast. These forests are characterized by cool temperatures and lots of rain, but an overall mild climate. Black-tailed deer do not therefore migrate in response to seasonal changes, unlike some of the other mule deer subspecies. Instead, black-tailed deer often spend their entire life in the same general area.

A dramatic storm over the Hells Canyon with wicked winds greeted me as I crested this ridge. The Canyon and Snake river is the boundary between Idaho in the distance and Oregon.
The canyon was carved by the waters of the Snake River, which flows more than one mile (1.6 km) below the canyon's west rim on the Oregon side and 7,400 feet (2,300 m) below the peaks of Idaho's Seven Devils Mountains to the east. This area includes 214,000 acres (87,000 ha) of wilderness. Most of the area is inaccessible by road.
Was blessed to live nearby and know the area well.
Happy Friday!
Wish all my Flickr. friends a Happy Easter 😊
Spring arose on the garden fair,
like the Spirit of Love felt everywhere;
and each flower and herb on Earth’s dark breast
rose from the dreams of its wintry rest.

Maintaining an active team of sled dogs with a wide range of ages is a challenge. While competitive mushers often retire dogs at middle age, say eight years old, those dogs still need exercise and can (and love to) run in team for 4-5 more years.
This 8-dog team (the leaders are not shown) consists of dogs from 4 years to 13 years old. Sandy, on the right just turned ten. Shusana on the left and her brother Alder immediately behind her are our youngest. Behind them are the three thirteen year olds.
There are many things to consider when running a team of widely mixed ages such as this. My leaders on this team, Beluga and Churrie (not shown) are 12 and 11 years old, respectively. One thing I like to do is run older dogs in lead, in order to set a slower pace and not hurt the elders. But that's just one part of the overall equation, which really is never the same.
Catching the light as I walked into Hillock Wood, this wonderful beech displays its new foliage for all to see.
Created for The Award Tree Challenge, "Signaling Spring".
work is keeping me away many days at a time! Hope everyone is doing well and enjoying the new season!
The azaleas were in bloom when I visited the Elizabethan Gardens on Roanoke Island this past spring.
