Can anyone tell me if these are lenticular clouds? It was very windy and near a mountain range…

I am on a recliner with a scarf covering my eyes. My cat is on my face, nearly covering my nose.
How my cat acts when I have a migraine…

Cas isn’t feeling up to snuff this morning. So he decided he wanted a little nap on my face.

Two Sandhill cranes, wings spread wide and long legs dangling down, start air-breaking on the way to landing in the neighbor’s yard. The view is from my deck, and in the background is a bay and mountains.
Coming in for a landing!

The lower sky is yellow with streaky clouds and the upper sky pale blue with fluffy altocumulus, but there is one dark gray circular cotton puff of a low cloud right in the middle of the picture

The amazing thing about this pic is not my silly, upside down doggie, but seeing my hubby’s bare feet on the floor for the first time in 22 years. (He’s from the Amazon where it’s not even safe to be barefoot in the house…)
