Was driving yesterday evening along a narrow country road and saw many deer. There just wasn't anywhere to pull over, until finally I found a spot. It was the day's last rays of light with magical mist. #Stunday #Deer #white-tailed #Mist #Nature #valkohäntäkauris #luonto #ECK

I got to hear these frogs chitchatting in the swamp when I visited a friend a few weeks ago. That one loud clap was a neighbor dropping something, I believe, and not a frog. 😁

'C' is for 'Cloud'! 😁 #SkySunday
A white puffy cloud hangs low over a line of green trees against a blue sky. The cloud is in the shape of the letter 'C'. In the foreground is rippled water with spartina grass.

Field of Dreams Another dry summer but last weekend provided enough drizzle for mushrooms to blossom. #mushrooms #fungi
Mushrooms in the woods. Green weeds, pine needles and grass cover the ground and a small tree is to the right.

The #3rdPlace I like to be besides home or work is playing in the water. #BlueSkyArtShow
A Yellow-crowned Night heron sits on an old wooden dock just before sunrise. In the background is a line of trees and pale green Spartina grass. They are all reflecting onto the still water below.

A black cat with a white collar and green eyes is looking directly at the camera. He is sitting on the ground and pavers with brown leaves. Sunlight is peeking through the trees above and shining on the ground.

#BirdoftheDay #BestBeaks Happy #FeatheredFriday!! My favorite beaks, by far, have to be these goofy looking Roseate Spoonbills. Smith Oaks, High Island, TX, March 2026 #birds #originalcontent #photography 📷🪶
A pair of spoonbills are standing in a leafy tree, looking below and giving us a good view of their long (6 to 7 inches) spoon-shaped bills. The birds are already unique with their white, light pink and dark pink coloring and their long legs and bald heads; the spoonbills just put them over the top.

Good morning! #Nature
A line of Live oak trees line the water on the left. The sun is rising so that the trees appear to be all shades of orange and yellow and green. The trees are casting a reflection onto the still water below. At the top of the photo is a Live oak limb hanging over the water.

Several layers of black, white, and pale blue clouds hang low over the water and mostly obstructing the view of the rising sun. There is a little bit of light shining through. Below is the harbor.

#BirdoftheDay #Green Green in the background... not on the bird. This reminded me of my photo from yesterday of the Vermilion flycatcher at #HuntingtonCentralPark. #SmallBirdSaturday #GreenSaturday #Birds #Nature #Photography
A red vermilion flycatcher sits atop a tall, thin, vertical bud sprouting from the fern bush below.  We see the small red bird while wearing some black wings and a black mask.  He has his head turned to give us a profile.  Green trees are blurred in the bokeh.

If you would like a little bit of silly fun today, Google 'Fat Bear Week' and then keep clicking on the little fish at the bottom. Eventually, the bear goes into hibernation. 🐻😍
In a Google search at the top it reads Fat Bear Week 2026 underneath the link Explore.org. Underneath that is Top stories: Voting underway for Fat Bear Week in Alaska with a brown bear below. On the right reads "Fat Bear Week Celebrate its Twelfth Year" and "Fat Bear Week returns Alaska's biggest bears compete for the crown" with a photo of a bracket and a brown bear. Bottom of screen is a little fish inside a brown circle and a yellow arrow pointing to it

There is a garden flag above the black cat's head and on the flag are sunflowers in orange, yellow, and red. In the background is a white porch and in the foreground are some brown leaves.

Thanks to KQED News for the heads up, “the Mexican Navy’s tall ship Cuauhtémoc” is now “berthed on the Embarcadero in San Francisco for the next four days as part of a goodwill visit — where you can go aboard this 120-foot-high ship for free.”  It’s at the docks by the Exploratorium and she’s a beauty.

This tree branch seems to be telling the Anhinga it's A-OK to perch there for awhile. 😁
A bird, looking right, sits on a black, green, and dark grey tree branch that has grown into the shape of a circle. The branch has Spanish moss hanging from it. The bird is shades of brown, grey, and amber colors.

Happy #SkySunday!
Big, puffy light gray and white puffy clouds hang over the ocean. The sun is rising behind them so that peach and pink colors reflect onto some of the clouds. The ocean is on the horizon. In the foreground there is a wooden walkway flanked by dunes and grass. There is a sign just at the end of the walkway. Flying just above the ocean in the background is a line of pelicans.

My neighbor told me that he hadn't seen any blue crabs in the sound for years and I was telling him that I see them all of the time. The very next day I'm down by the water and this happens. I guess he doesn't have the magic touch? 😄🦀

This osprey posed in perfect light on Friday. #HuntingtonCentralPark #Birds #Nature #Photography
Perched atop a dead tree trunk is an osprey in profile.  We see his/her white chest and neck facing right.  The wings are dark brown , and s/he has a brown eye stripe which blends into brown on the back of the neck. A shiny, hooked, black beak with a sharp point stands in relief to the blurry greens of the tree in the background.  We see the right, round, yellow eye clearly as the bird looks out over the lake (not pictured here).

Happy #SkySunday! I was watching these gulls and skimmers taking a morning bath when this rainbow appeared. Just as I was taking the photo, a mama dolphin and her baby popped up out of the water. Heart full. #Stunday🌈🐬🦉
Ring-billed gulls and Black skimmers stand on shadowed sand with two patched of green grass. Behind the birds is blue water lined by green grass and a line of trees. In the water is the fin of a dolphin. The sky is blue with white a light blue puffy clouds with a hint of a rainbow in the center.

At first glance, I read today's #BlueSkyArtShow theme as miniscule and chose this photo. Then I realized today's theme is actually #minimal. I think this Coffee bean snail riding on a Periwinkle snail perched on a little stick still works though. 😁

Since I've posted two water-themed videos this morning, what's one more? 😁 Loggerhead hatchling season is winding down so I feel lucky to have gone to nest check where they found seven babies that needed assistance getting to the ocean! Not to worry, I got over so this one could pass by. 💕🐢🦑
