I made a feed for Corvids! Like and follow this feed for images and tales of crows, ravens, rooks, magpies, jackdaws, jays, treepies, choughs, and nutcrackers.

Title: Mount Adams at Sunset
Description: The image captures a stunning display of alpenglow on the majestic, snow-capped Mount Adams in Washington as the sun sets. The mountain dominates the scene, its slopes bathed in a warm, rosy light. The contrast between the vibrant alpenglow and the deep blue sky creates a dramatic and captivating effect. A dense forest of evergreen trees, likely coniferous, lines the base of the mountain, adding depth and texture to the scene. The reflection of the snow-capped Mount Adams and the sky in a calm lake or pond creates a mirror-like image, doubling the beauty and serenity of the landscape.
Additional Details:
 * The foreground of the image likely features a calm lake or pond, its surface a mirror reflecting the alpenglow and the mountain.
 * Aquatic birds, such as loons or grebes, might be seen gliding gracefully across the water, adding to the tranquility of the scene.
The alpenglow, a phenomenon caused by the scattering of sunlight by the atmosphere, illuminates the mountain's peaks and ridges, creating a sense of awe and wonder. The image evokes a feeling of tranquility and peacefulness, inviting the viewer to imagine themselves standing in this breathtaking natural setting.

Meet Mouse. Danger Mouse. He used to be an outdoor working cat and was adopted as such. He has since become spoiled during his acclimation period and now exclusively hunts the old (but swanky and heated) trailer on our ranch. #cats #catdistributionsystem #gato #cat #meow #life
