With full containment of the Springs Fire expected by tomorrow, I found my spirits uplifted by seeing that this landscape has not been scorched. One finger of the fire line at least reached just beyond the rocky ridge line here in the Santa Monica Mountains, and some of my favorite hiking is in these parts. After losing some really beloved trails to the "Station Fire" in the San Gabriel Mountains back in 2009, I was fearful that this section had burned. Thanks to the efforts of firefighters and some very fortunate changes in the weather, this landscape is unburned for now. Next time I hike here I will appreciate the green views much more!
This Black-crowned Night Heron attacked the two Ibis chicks, then mom came out of nowhere and drove the heron away. The attack lasted about ten seconds but seemed like 10 minutes. After mom drove the heron away the chicks just wanted to eat. So no damage done. They seemed fine the rest of the time I was there.

Came back from the vet hospital (not clinic...hospital). The visit hours are between 8 pm and 9 pm! We (Dan, my mom, her boyfriend and I) sat on the floor in a little private room and gave as much affection as possible to Brian for 1 short hour. Poor baby was on morphine and had problem laying down bacause of his intravenous kit (the green thing on his leg). So I made him a "nest" with my scarf and he slept there for a few minutes. He looked so happy to see us.
The doctor gave us in a little plastic container the object that was stuck in Brian intestine: a 3/4in by 1in piece of rubber ball that he probably got at the dog park. I will keep it forever as a souvenir of the trip to Berlin that we won't do this year! Bye bye 2500-3000$ !!!! I really LOVE my dog!
He is coming back tomorrow :)
March 15, 2014, in Tbilisi, Georgia, Green Fist, Food not Bombs and Youth for Heritage hosted a protest concert in front of Tbilisi State University to raise awareness and mobilize society against Khudoni hydropower development project planned on Enguri river, in Svaneti – in a mountainous region of unique beauty. The project involves construction of 650 MW hydropower station with 200 meter high dam; as a result of the project, 530 hectares of land will be inundated and around 1500 people will be physically relocated from their ancestral lands, traditionally owned by indigenous Svan communities for centuries.
