Clouds. Supposed to rain next week, so I’m seeing this as an omen of good things to come. Woo.

White clouds drift in front of a deep blue sky.

This fella was in the middle of the sidewalk this afternoon. Not sure if it was cold (high of 53 today), but I’ve never seen a dragonfly sitting out like that before.

Black dragonfly sitting on a wet concrete sidewalk. Wingspan is about three inches, the body and abdomen are black with light patches, the eyes are a dark red, and the wings are transparent. Might be a black petaltail dragonfly.

The moon is awesome tonight. An upcoming conjunction between Jupiter and Mercury is coming (closest approach will be on June 25), so keep an eye out for that, too.

Waxing crescent moon, slightly hazy due to the weather and because the photographer was trying to hand-hold a 600mm lens during a 1/60 second exposure.

Here's why I was outside with the honkin' huge lens. I figured since they were flying over the house I should at least attempt to take a photo. Crappy weather for an airshow, though. Brr.

A F-35 climbs away from the photographer. The background is completely white, due to the thick low-lying clouds the plane is climbing towards.

Blue jay sitting in the top of a Douglas fir tree. Photo was taken with a Sigma 150-600mm lens that I don't play with nearly enough.

This is from a couple months ago. Little brown bird was sitting on the hydrangea branch, waiting for the mob of larger little brown birds at the feeder to thin out a bit.

Borb on a hydrangea branch with many dead flowers. Photo was taken through a very dirty window so it's very soft.

It’s been slug weather lately.

Ridge duck. I’m not certain what they were doing, but there were several houses in a row, each with their own duck.

A mallard drake roosts on the ridge of a single story ranch house. The duck is silhouetted against a blue sky as the sun dips below the horizon to the right of the picture. A Douglas fir is visible to the left.

Coffee table wildlife photography. Bartholomew, commonly known as Mew. A lesson in why you shouldn’t name a pet after a noise it can make—because he says his name a LOT.

Male American wigeon. I had to look this one up--I don't recall seeing these fellows in our area before. #birds

Male American wigeon. A pretty water bird with a light-blue bill, a white forehead, and a green eye patch that extends to the back of his neck. He is facing into the direct sun and there is a patch of water visible in the background.

Mallard. Turns out it's very hard to take photos of the ducks in the park--they're so used to being fed that when you stop to take their photo, they charge you. Quacking. #birds

A very handsome mallard faces into full sunlight. The muddy background is pleasantly blurred out and the harsh shadows to the left accent the brilliant green of his head.

The rain stopped briefly today and I found another shaggy mane. Then the rain rolled back in and I picked up a screw in my tire and whee…

A shaggy mane mushroom enjoys a sunny period between rainy bits. Dead leaves litter the ground around it and a bit of blue sky is visible in the background.

Never seen a stink bug this color before.

What I assume is a brown marmorated stink bug sits on a gray-painted wood railing. The bug is about 1/3” across and faces to the right. It is dark gray with shite speckles.

Daffodils are coming up. This is insane. Daffodils don’t come up in December. I was outraged when they were up in January, and this is worse.

Dozens of daffodil sprouts are coming up from the bare dirt of a flower bed. Green moss is visible I. The left front corner of the photo.

Leaf on the sidewalk this morning.

A yellow-green ginkgo leaf lies on a gray concrete sidewalk with several large puddles of raindrops on it. A smaller leaf is in the background to the left.

Tiny ‘shrooms. Oak leaf for scale. Frustrating that I couldn’t get the phone camera to focus on the mushroom. Great detail on the leaf, though.

Three tiny orange mushrooms grow in wet green grass and moss next to a red fallen oak leaf. The cap of the largest mushroom is flat and the edges are wavy. The middle of the largest mushroom is darker than the rest of the cap.

Not sure if this video will work, but if you go after dark the walls “move” like flames. They also have excellent Happy Hour prices. :-)

Geese. For as far as the eye can see…

A pond covered (literally) with Canada geese. These are the small size, about as big as a large mallard. And very very noisy. Green and yellow trees are visible in the background, with large very dark-green oaks visible behind them. The sky is cloudy and pale blue.

Wenatchee, WA, from the pedestrian overpass over the freight lines.

Seven sets of railroad tracks stretch off into the distance. Photo is taken from over the center pair of tracks. The sky is a beautiful blue except for the upper-left of the picture where smoke from the Sugarloaf and Lower Mountains is visible as a purple-salmon colored cloud.

Pollinator pollinating. I have no idea what this is, but it has wasp-wings.

A small pollinator works on a sprig of a lilac bush. The purple flower stands up in the upper-left of the image while the yellow-winged pollinator, with a black-and-yellow striped abdomen, works on the lower-right side of the flower, facing away from the viewer. The bug has wings that look like it’s a member of a wasp family. A green leaf sticks out into the lower-right corner of the image.

He’s judging me for using a T6 TORX driver to remove triangle-head screws from an ornament I’m fixing. “If you weren’t so cheap you wouldn’t be doing this again.”
