a group of several pink flamingos in an outdoor habitat at the Wildlife Safari Park in Winston, Oregon. The ground is covered with mulch and a patch of grass. Two metal feeders filled with food pellets are visible. Some of the flamingos are standing, while others are resting on the ground. A chain-link fence is visible in the background.

In 2021, the Oregon State Legislature voted to recognize the second Monday in October as #IndigenousPeoplesDay, replacing Columbus Day. Oregon joined 10 other states in recognizing the significant contributions that Native Americans have made to the U.S.

several cormorants are perched on a rocky cliff face under a clear blue sky. the birds are large waterbirds with long, slender necks and dark plumage. the bird in the center has its wings spread wide, a common behavior for cormorants to dry their feathers. two birds appear to be preening, while the one on the left is looking out to sea.

Any Edward Gorey fans? This one is one of my favorites and perfect for #Spooktober. A friend gifted me “The Doubtful Guest” a long time ago and I was hooked right away. I now have all of his books.

The Gashlycrumb Tinies is an alphabet book by Edward Gorey that was first published in 1963. 
The book features 26 children, each representing a letter of the alphabet, and describes their untimely deaths in rhyming couplets. It is one of Edward Gorey's most well-known works and is recognized for its morbid humor and distinctive black-and-white illustrations. 
Behind the book on the left is a lit candle in a mosaic glass dish and to the right are two spiral bound notebooks.

There are also smooth, bright orange pumpkins and some pale yellow or white gourds visible in the background. The gourds and pumpkins are piled on top of each other.

I am free and proud,
I am strong,
Years come and years pass,
I sculpt the landscape of the Earth,
The world travels through me,
I am the river.
- R.T. Nero
the Rogue River flows through a forested landscape under a clear blue sky with some white clouds overhead. The river has some rocky sections where the water appears to be moving more quickly. The banks are lined with a mix of evergreen and deciduous trees, with a large, leafy green bush in the right foreground.
