Distant snowy mountains with alpenglow under low clouds rise above the slate blue waters of Lake Pend Oreille.

You guys know what fresh snow means, right? It's goon season, eh?

Apparently winter isn't the only thing that blew in on the wind last night, haha. 🦊

The Canadians have blessed me with weather riding a north wind today. Happy Canadian Thanksgiving! 🇨🇦

The sun rises over a conifer forest covered in a cloak of fresh snow.

Yeah, me neither. It's tragic that there are no shows in our area right now because this thing deserves an AOS award.

This is one of my friend Scott's orchids, it's an Epidendrum porpax with HUNDREDS of flowers. It's bigger than a basketball and is staggeringly beautiful.

One side of an orchid with at least a hundred small flowers. They have upturned petals and a hanging red lip with a yellow center. The leaves are small and ovate-lanceolate with a center crease. There is some reflective material in the back.

Hahaha...one time I finally found the nest tree for the goshawks I was surveying because it had dismembered chipmunk parts littering the first floor around if. Metal as hell.

Joke's on us, now there's two people littering.

Break them up and feed them to your chickens!

If you're asking whether it's the outgoing one, then yes.

Colton the fish squeezer🐟🪴📚🏕️🐝 @fishsqueezer.bsky.social · 1d

Yes, and I love how well they keep each other entertained.

Wow, I'm very impressed.

Colton the fish squeezer🐟🪴📚🏕️🐝 @fishsqueezer.bsky.social · 1d

Sorry the situation isn't ideal, but thanks for sharing your talent with us again!

Sending you a message

Colton the fish squeezer🐟🪴📚🏕️🐝 @fishsqueezer.bsky.social · 1d

Congratulations to the happy couple.

One tall, partially deliquesced shaggy mane mushroom that looks like an open partial dripping black liquid grows next to a slightly shorter, full figured mushroom that is still pristine. They're both growing in grass.

If it freezes outside where you live, you don't need to use the fridge. After the first couple frosts send them to dormancy, I put mine in the garage for the rest of winter (which is very long here).

Wow, these are all gorgeous, obviously, but that first bi-color dahlia is an absolute work of art.
