One of our resident Rock Squirrels chowing down on a peanut Look close and you may see a few stick-tight fleas at the eyelid margins

Lizard Thursday! This is a Sonoran Spotted Whiptail lizard yesterday in my backyard You can tell because there are spots Look She's waving at you! And her tongue is out! And all of them are females!

Reptile Thursday! You know I hate to point out the obvious but this is a Desert Grassland Whiptail lizard I spotted her yesterday in my backyard Weirdly, all of them are females and modern science has no clue how any of that works

I've hardly had any time today, so here are just a few snapshot Memories from last weekend We were at the tiny medieval festival in Donaueschingen www.fabula-corvinus.de #Donaueschingen #Nikon #Fotografie 📷 🌿 #photography

Last night had the most ethereal sunset. I just pointed the big lens at it. 🤷‍♂️ Strange looking to say the least. Donegal hills in foreground. Taking my dog out a walk. See you all later. #Ireland #sunset #photography #ECK

A male red-winged blackbird appears to be climbing invisible stairs, though it is actually taking flight in Longmont, Colorado. #BirdOfTheDay #InMotion #Yellow #bird #birdphotography #EastCoastKin #ECK #birds #photography #BirdsSeenln2026

Appears to be a chokecherry popping out of the underbrush. #flowers #FlowerPhotography #BloomScrolling #bokeh #nature #NaturePhotography #photography #AltText

What appear to be Scots or Scotch pine cones. I don't know that I've seen them during this transition before. Kinda looks like corn on the cob on the cone. #conifers #trees #pine #nature #NaturePhotography #photography #AltText

Lot of pink magnolias around town but not many yellow. I've one nearby but it's small & its blooms brown before opening. Happy to find this one in its prime earlier this month but it's on the other side of town so I don't catch it every yr. #flowers #BloomScrolling #nature #photography #AltText

What appears to be a native plum but I couldn't specify the species using an ID app. From a cute little stand of ~15 of these small, mostly single trunks along a section Mormon Handcart trail. #flowers #FlowerPhotography #BloomScrolling #nature #NaturePhotography #AltText

Goslings have come a goslinging and their parents are loaded for bear. First family I've seen so far. Hopefully I can catch some ducklings too. #birds #birding #BirdPhotography #wildlife #WildlifePhotography #nature #NaturePhotography #photography #AltText

Still lots of tulips blooming like these deep purple variety backed by purple creeping phlox flowers in a friend's garden. #flowers #FlowerPhotography #BloomScrolling #gardening #nature #NaturePhotography #photography #AltText

Lotsa cottontails out and about the last few days. I have a new(?) bunny out back, tons were on the trail, as well as this one👇 munching grass in a shaft of light in a quiet neighborhood. #rabbits #bunnies #wildlife #WildLifePhotography #nature #NaturePhotography #photography #AltText

Volunteer violet patches. Violets are native here/ubiquitous. I cleared out an area out back to plant w/ native plants but left these in place. Seem to be thriving after cleaning out competitors like creeping Charlie 👍. #flowers #BloomScrolling #nature #NaturePhotography #Photography #AltText

Tulips kisses, pour vous? #flowers #gardening #BloomScrolling #nature #NaturePhotography #photography #AltText

"Violet, you're turning violet, Violet!" Managed to get a violet successfully transplanted from out back & into the main garden. It's doing quite well and hopefully I can get more to spread. Such a lovely spring flower/plant. #flowers #WildFlowers " #BloomScrolling #nature #photography #AltText

Prairie blue-eyed grass. Been scattering it in my #garden . Hopefully, I can harvest & keep reseeding. While not grass, the foliage has a grassy look/size with a multiple small inflorescences of blue flowers. #flowers #MacroPhotography #BloomScrolling #nature #photography #AltText

The last of my tulips. I had several tulips this year that only developed leaves but its only their 1st yr. Hope to see this one back next yr. The white lining on the leaf edges is marvelous! #PhotoHour #gardening #flowers #BloomScrolling #nature #NaturePhotography #photography #AltText
