Driftboat camping on spring fed waters. Only birds, coyote, turtles, bear, and fish for neighbors. #flyfishing #camping #birds

Sixteen miles out in a 17 foot boat for tuna was a bit unnerving for a riverman (I like two shores). We came home with Chinook salmon. Bonus: humpback whales breaching and rolling. #salmon #whales #pacific

Quick clip of a long-legged bobcat. Larger frame than most here, but needs to find more food. #wildlife #bobcat

Neighborhood bear heading home on garbage pickup night. It's covered with burs from Torilis arvensis - hedge parsley. I brush them out of the dog every day and would be happy to help it out. #wildlife #bears

Francis guarding the cooler. Bears won't get his treats, and I can't have a beer - until I cajole him off and reward his diligence. #dogs #river #summer

More river life when the mercury hits 95 degrees. River AC - a sliver of shade and sipping cold drinks in the water. #rafting #rivers #camping

It's the river life for me. Warming up on a foggy morning before running the rapds. Past April #rivers #wilderness #whitewater

4.0 days in the wilderness rafting on the newly undamned Klamath River. Osprey, bald eagles, swimming bears, and an otter family for company. #rivers #wildlife #scenic

The young golden eagle has lost a fair amount of feathers and I was worried when I saw it lay down and stretch out. A parent is visiting and hopefully feeding and I didn't hear it calling today. I changed batteries in the camera and didn't set the date. #eagle #wildlife #trailcam

A young golden eagle has been calling for three days. There is a nest nearby so I just thought it was hungry. the camera shows it's been on the ground. I've contacted the local wildlife rescue - they had been out before when an eagle came to the front door. #eagle #raptor #wildlife #trailcamera

Bears are back and hungry. Rolling rocks onto the trail looking for grubs and busting through the fence to get to fruit trees. #wildlife #trailcam #bears

Toxic, cannibalistic, indiscriminately predatory, and irresistibly cute. Sierra newt. #wildlife #amphibians #pets

Mt lion mom and two cubs. One of the cubs is staggering, weak or stunned. An hour later it walked by our front porch. #nature #wildlife #trailcam

Francis showing off his Dr. Suess paws. He's been to four different groomers unable to trim his nails. He apparently is an arm wrestling champion. #dogs #husky #wolfdog

Young mt. lion strolls by while I'm enjoying my morning coffee. I've never seen one before except often on my trail camera. I stuck my head out the door and gave it my best bear yell. It bolted without even looking back. Francis sniffs the air differently when lions are around. #wildlife #cats

The overwintering garden has sprung into spring. Chard border and elephant garlic. Plenty of rock dug out of the planting bed. #gardening

A Sunday drive with Mrs. Space. Francis is wishing he could be a front seat lap dog with his Madre. #dogs

A size comparison. The deer herd is in the area and the cat has been around more than usual. It appears to be prowling for dinner. Francis gets agitated when there is a fresh lion scent. #wildlife #trailcam #wolfdog #husky

This Sierran treefrog (Pseudacris sierra) won't pose while being relocated. Getting ready to mow, I look for little creatures (and rocks). They are surprisingly loud. #frogs #amphibians

Happy boy Francis at the river. (Happy until his wet dog dreadlocks get brushed out.) #dogs

First bears of the year on the bear trail. I believe it is a mama and yearling that is ready to be on its own. We have bears that have a distintive ridgeback. One big male I named "Schooner". #wildlife #trailcam

A wade in the river for Francis. He swims only if Madre is swimming. #dogsofbluesky #sundayswim
