I'm here for the pretty pictures. I like what I like, and repost what I really like. None of the images are mine.

Snow capped Fitzsimmons Range is framed by mountain evergreens. A blue green lake peeks between the trees at the mountain's base.

The air here is so crisp and clear...so when one gasps at the magnificent scenery, one's lungs hurt.

I will never get tired of trying to infinitely inch closer to hummingbirds

I have a few food spots around county where the birds simply ignore me and go about their business

I will watched this male over a period of 20 minutes as I repositioned my self closer and closer…

A photo of a misty waterfall dropping from a cliff, bathed in morning sunlight. The cliff the waterfall drops from slopes from the upper right corner to the middle left, with tall conifer trees on top of it's ridge, and blue sky, with a few white clouds at the top edge of the image. The cliff drops down out of the sunshine, and is covered in moss, as are the boulders below it.
The sunlight is coming from the far left off image, and low, so that the cliff face has many shaded areas on it's right sides.

It's another #WaterfallWednesday! This falls always captures everyone's attention that visits this canyon off the #ColumbiaGorge! Then they spot the big one at the end! πŸ˜†
With good light, sometimes rainbows play in this one!

The image shows a red flower with a yellow centre.
The flower has bright red petals that are narrow and elongated. They are arranged in several layers and have a slightly jagged or wavy edge.
In the middle of the flower is a dense, bright yellow centre consisting of many small flowers.

View, looking upwards at a tall tree with large trunk, red fall leaves at the top. A bright blue sky with a few fluffy clouds are behind the foliage.

A forest path covered in fallen leaves during autumn, with tall trees on both sides. The low sun shines brightly through the trees, casting long shadows across the path and creating a warm, golden glow in the scene.

A small, grayish bird with olive-yellow wings with both a white and black wingbar perches in shadow on the tip of a twig under a couple of green leaves and against a bright green background. Its head is tilted down as it looks at something below, showing off the black cap with a bright yellow streak down the center.

Too busy looking for something to eat to spare a glance for me.

A sunny early morning with long shadows and a lot of early haze to burn off. We are standing atop a mountain looking towards other mountains cascading towards the misty horizon. There is a thicket of rhododendron below right, almost the only green in this photo at this very early stage of spring up here. Some leaves are starting to sprout on a ridge below left and several trees just below us are sporting bright pink or white buds.

I was so happy to see American Tree Sparrows back in town this weekend too. 😊 I got so used to seeing them last winter and I didn't realize they were a migratory species! Honestly I had no idea about any of the sparrows I learned how to identify this year, until I stopped seeing them. πŸ˜‚ #birds
