I enjoyed a challenging day of photography at a wildlife refuge during a rainstorm. The Sandhill Cranes were grazing in the fields, and a hawk was clearly enjoying the chance for a refreshing bath, but most other wildlife seemed to be hunkering down and waiting for the sun to make an appearance!

Save Coyote Mountain Legacy Forest - Stop the Luna Tix Timber Sale!
A remnant legacy forest high on the slopes of Coyote Mountain near Mt. St. Helens is a bastion of biodiversity on Washington State public lands. However, the Washington Department of Natural Resources plans to cut it down as part of the Luna Tix timber sale.
Please contact the WADNR and tell them to cancel the Luna Tix timber sale and protect our last legacy forests before it's too late!

On a chilly morning in early November, the sun ascended through the layered clouds, gilding their translucent fronds with golden hues and lighting up the sky with a sunrise that swelled and dimmed and swelled again.

Purple Martins
Purple Martins hanging out at a marina, watching the sunset from wires and their own porch steps. Their distinctive call echoes over the water as the dusky hue of these big mouthed birds slowly blends into the night sky.
