A yellow prop plane that has jelly beans painted on it with one red one that says 'Jelly Belly' in a yellow font. The plane is positioned on the top of a white van and camper, also decorated with painted jelly belly jelly beans, and the pilot is visible in the cockpit. The sky behind and above is cloudy and pale in color.

A street scene in New Orleans with four Policemen standing by a police car with metal fencing. Two of the men have yellow jackets on over their uniforms, the other two have longer yellow rain jackets and one has yellow pants. There are stores behind them, and a sign that says NO TURN ON RED on the left hand side. A man's belly is seen sticking out on the far right side of the image.

A close-up of a bright yellow colored dahlia that has petals that curl down and underneath themselves, making the tips pointed. The petals are outlined in red, and the tips are a darker red.

A view from standing underneath a giant white, silver, and blue structure that resembles a claw, with a blue sky behind it and a little decorative frog head in the lower right of the image. The claw is from a U2 tour and has been repurposed at the aquarium in Draper, Utah.

Yeah, we have a lot of activity in our yard, so I don't know that anything will 'nest' in it. They eat and drink here! We get lots of squirrels, but sometimes raccoons and even cats, so they likely won't feel safe enough to nest. But I might be able to hide it somewhere... πŸ€”

Same! We have the feeder cams (One for normal birds and one for hummers), and an adventure cam, but I need to get either a nesting box like this and/or a squirrel box. (*Note I 'need' these things 🀭)

This species of nudibranch is known as Chromodoris coi. I captured it while diving in the Philippines. They are exceptionally colorful and vibrant.
