Opinions were divided on whether to take flight or not.

Multiples of gulls at the edge of the ocean on a smoky day, half taking flight with breaking waves behind, half standing in wet sand, mostly looking towards the waves.

Rosemary is blooming ~ bees are loving it! Not that I've had much success getting a clear shot of any... 🌱

Lavender/blue tiny, odd-looking flowers I'm not sure how to describe blooming all over green rosemary stems, only front center flowers in focus.

Oh Portland, you are so weird. 😂
I love it.

I keep being reminded of the old Mad Max movie with Master Blaster, Master being the little guy, 'the brains,' who rode on the giant Blaster, 'the brawn' ....

Yes, these roses have such variance in color, depending...
Love them!

'Compassion' rose on a sunny day, looking a bit wan but still going strong.

Very pale pink/apricot rose with one petal edge on lower right having very bright fuchsia mark (fungus from recent rain). Rose leaves below, blue sky above - and little black squares of deer fencing behind.

Sweet to see both your hands there. Lovely. Hope you've had a nice visit!

Thank you! A wonderful surprise sighting... and a biologist friend confirmed for me that it is a Swainson's Hawk. Apparently the dark morph version are less common around here, so it was even more lovely to see. 😊
Hope all is well over your way!

Thank you! A very cool-looking bird.
The way it was staring right at me (the camera lens, really, but let's go with it 😂) had me wondering about hawk myths, portents, signs and such.. 😁

What bird did I see?
Thinking it's a dark morph Swainson's Hawk...?
He was perched on a treetop in open area while I was up at the top of the mountain, 7500'.
He silently glided in, and suddenly was there! (Photo quite zoomed in.)
Such a glorious sight. 🪶

Hawk perched on evergreen tree top, reddish chest, light right around beak, light around tail feathers but the rest of him, head, belly, back, all quite dark. Sunlight behind him, lighting up edge around head and down back, tail feathers.

Thank you so much! A lovely day. The scrub jay was such a nice bonus 🥰

It really was. Thank you! A lovely day.

I've been looking out for them... so far they're showing up in pretty good shape, unlike some years when there are lots of wildfires and they show up exhausted and bedraggled.
Whew.
