Pika camouflage working well. These dudes are awesome and I was lucky to spot several in the high Sierra.

My parent’s donkey Sofia in her short summer look. She is temporarily being confined to a smaller area because the old plumb trees in her field are producing a ton of fruit and the vet says that eating all the plumbs is bad for her. Sofia disagrees with this opinion.

I was in my driveway when I heard this bear ripping up an old log searching for grubs. Cool to observe a local bear not relying on people for food.

Snow skate dog walk. Backyard is a bit crusty for no bindings, but Frey appreciated it.

Rode my bike to town today and saw this cute kitty on the way back through the forest.
