In celebration of International Women’s Day, I thought it would be appropriate to share a photo of the Matriarch of our family.

To women everywhere, I celebrate your day. Happy International Women’s Day ! #internationalwomansday

3 linnets sat high in the branches of a tree all puffed up and looking very contented as they sunbathe. The rosy hues on their breasts with light brown speckles and cream underbelly are highlighted by the sun

Fluffy clouds coloured orange by the setting sun look like a dancer leaping through the air (to me at least)

Photograph of an American robin standing on mulch strewn ground with an out of focus gray heavily textured tree trunk in the background. The robin is facing the camera with its head turned to the left and tilted up in profile. American robins have orange chest and belly feathers with white under-tail feathers, grey back feathers, dark grey-black wing and tail feathers, black head feathers with white and black mottled chin feathers, dark eyes surrounded by white eyeliner, orange-yellow beaks, and brown legs and feet.

I went a bit overboard taking #PHOTOS of the last night's #Sahara sunset! So, here's another ... It was lovely of the egret to come out for a little night fishing, exactly as I started taking snaps. I did have a heck of a time keeping all those horizontals straight tho! #NatureIsMagic #photographs

Skull Rock
Joshua Tree National Park

The desert shapes wonders born of wind and time.
Shadows soften the edges of what we think we know.
Even stillness feels touched by something unseen.
Mystery settles gently across the land.

Rapids coming off a lake with mountains behind it and conifers to the right. There are some broken branches in it. The mountains have some snow.

A green swathe of northern lights across the top half of the photo, with some moonlit clouds below. There is a pointy mountain visible and some of the green is reflected in windblown water below.

Finally got to see northern lights in the early hours of this morning. I always wake up in the night, & occasionally check out the window. There was some green light (visible with the phone) so I got dressed & went out! A bit cloudy (& very windy), & the cloud grew, but nice to see them :)
