As soon as I saw this I knew exactly how I would edit this.
So I attack it with my camera and then when I was done I sat down to start trying out the bubbles and I noticed there was ACTUALLY a lifeguard on duty and he was watching me the whole time.
There is rarely ever a lifeguard on duty. But I guess I should have realized it since the boat was out. I'm sure he didn't care anyways. I just hate when I realize later that someone was watching me and I didn't notice.
She returns when she's ready and sits and watches. She waits for contact and interaction on her conditions and terms. She tells me when she is ready and that I am to follow her lead. When you're wild....caution controls your life. So I have called her Caution.
This osprey was perched overlooking the Willamette River yesterday. It patiently waited while I joined another photographer, who had sat watching it in the same place for a half hour. Within 3 minutes of my arrival, it took off, just what the other photographer had been waiting for. Unfortunately for me, there was a pole in my way of a clear shot, but he was able to get the shot he'd been waiting for!
While I and about twenty other folks were looking south at a sow Black Bear with cubs, this boar Black Bear came out of the woods behind us. After grubbing on this rotting log for a short time,he just looked up and walked calmly around us.
I went to Wakodahatchee Wetlands this morning where lots and lots of birds are nesting. This Anhinga was delivering some soft material to the nest to make it a bit more comfortable.

I just started a book called "Blue Mind" by Wallace J. Nichols. It's about our connection to water, the way we are drawn to it, soothed and enchanted by it, and what the scientific research has to say about it. I'm still reading it, but so far so good. I am definitely taking note on how many of my personal behaviors and thoughts have been influenced by water, whether frozen in a glacier, reflecting in a lake, flowing in a waterfall, or caressing a shore. I think for me, water can be conducive to a state of mindfullness, or meditation, bringing the mind and body closer to the same moment at the same time. I'm curious to see what the research says.
Side note, this is my dad, on one of our many trips to the Oregon coast together. We've gone as a family almost yearly to bi-yearly my whole life. It is almost his birthday. Happy birthday, Dad!
