Saw this Great Blue Heron this afternoon at Berkeley Aquatic Park. From a distance I thought it was a piece of wood because it blended in so well with the old wooden retaining wall behind him. Always delighted to come across a heron.

Large shorebird standing along the shoreline of a large lagoon in Berkeley that is connected to San Francisco Bay. There is an old, wooden retaining wall behind him. Water is pale greenish, gray.

This one reminds me of 70‘s / 80‘s
sci-fi or fantasy movies. Like the imperial base on Endor from Star Wars. 😅

San Diego, California

Soft ripples of water sing beneath a colorful sky.
Reflections drift where memory lingers.
The last light gathers, folding into stillness.
Serenity deepens, and the soul begins to rest.

Hemlock woodlands…ferns in the clearing..

Dark hemlocks in the shadows, yellow gold ferns in the sunlight of the clearing, green of the forest in the back ground with blue sky showing through the branches..

Autumn is showing off with Mount Rainier. This image showcases a beautiful field with a wooden fence in front, a green and golden lawn in the middle, a fantastic line of fall foliage covered trees with hills and misty mountains in the background. The crown on top of it all is Mount Rainier against a beautiful early morning blue sky.
