Red-tailed hawk with the Ridge in the background. 🪶
Red-tailed hawk perched on part of a power pole with the distant high rise buildings of the Ridge high up on the mountain seemingly beside the bird.

The carrots my store had were absolutely massive so this is more carrot heavy than probably intended. LOL
Two carrots and a zucchini on a cutting board. The carrots are larger than the zucchini.

Viola!
A soup bowl filled with a colorful soup of carrots, zucchini, spinach, celery, tomatoes, onion, orzo, chickpeas, and a couple pinches of parmesan on top. A glass of soy milk sits beside the bowl.

I was asked for the photo that Tamami Tokutake used for her Stillwater art piece and while looking at her gallery, discovered I'd forgotten she used another photo as inspiration for a second piece called Silence of Stillwater. (Her's is MUCH better.)

Far out on Stillwater Point Reservoir, a lone Western Grebe (black cap extending down below the eye) swims smoothly across the rippled water. The day is overcast, giving the water a grey look. Thin green reeds grow up out of the water behind the bird.

Oh! and one more at Soda Lake. Few minutes later (09:05PM) the red was starting to fade and a green band grew in intensity.

Didn't realize I was on "Night Mode" so the settings were ISO 2000 and 0.4998 sec exposure.
A brilliantly red lit sky stretches up from a green band that hangs above the horizon. Some red streaks cut through the green, but it remains a distinctive arch across the sky. Below is a still lake reflecting the incredible aurora.

Here's the two best shots I got of the #aurora this evening in Northern Nevada at N39° W118°.

First was just north on US 95 at 05:52PM.

Second was at Soda Lake at 08:40PM

Both set at ISO 1600 and exposure 10s.
A bright red lit sky fills the night, with patchy clouds dimming the red slightly and obscuring the green that is low on the horizon. Stars manage to shine through the intense aurora. A brilliantly red lit sky with streaks of pink and white stretches up from a green horizon. Distant clouds block much of the green, but the light shines through. Above some bright stars dot the pale red glow and below is a still lake reflecting the incredible aurora.

Severe Geomagnetic Storm WATCH for Nov 12 UTC-day G4 Updated: Tue, 11 Nov. 2025 17:15 UTC WHAT: A CME will likely arrive at Earth and lead to highly elevated geomagnetic activity EVENT: A coronal mass ejection (CME) is an eruption of solar material and magnetic fields. When they arrive at Earth, a geomagnetic storm can result. Watches at this level are very rare; still, this is the fourth G4 Watch issued so far this solar cycle. EXPECTATION: A CME is anticipated to arrive at and partially impact Earth around mid-day, 12 Nov; with the potential for elevated geomagnetic response and dependent upon the orientation of the embedded magnetic field, potential exists for Severe Storm levels. EFFECTS: Detrimental impacts to some of our critical infrastructure technology are possible, but mitigation is possible. The general public should visit our webpage to keep properly informed. The aurora may become visible over much of the northern half of the country, and maybe as far south as Alabama to northern California.

Google says the civic center is next door up the street. Hospital is in the same building as the library.

For a brief moment in my viewfinder, I was excited to see a golden-crowned sparrow!

Nope, white-crowned with a gold leaf.

🪶
A fluffed up white-crowned sparrow perches in a bush with a bunch a small green growths and a few small yellow leaves. One happens to be aligned with the distinctive white stripe over the top of the bird's head, making it appear gold.

I painted rocks today.

(I am not creative, I can just copy from search results.)
Two small flat stones. One is painted white with three birds (yellow, green, and blue) perched on a line, while a fourth red bird hangs upside down. Text beside the red bird, also upside down, reads "Be different." The other is painted a blue bird, either yellow eyes surrounded by thin lines and dots, and a dark blue wing with yellow dots along the edge.

Took awhile, but completed a quest line for a legendary item and got my character hovering over Stormwind.
Screenshot from World of Warcraft with two blue dragons (one ghostly transparent the other dark blue) hovering over a white city and calling upon purple bolts of magic to strike a staff hanging between them. In the middle of the two is a wolf character wearing a long blue coat and kneeling on a ornate platform. Wide view of Stormwind City with numerous blue dragons flying around the tall towers. In the center, surrounded by glowing blue runes, is a massive ghostly blue dragon with a wolf character on her back holding an ornate staff. The distant sky is sunset orange, highlighting the blue dragons.

Shhh, be very quiet.

🪶
A sleeping great horned owl, seen from the side, has their eyes closed while they are nestled up against a thick branch covered in rough bark, thin pale green leaves around them. Their head is tucked down, namesake "horns" fluffed from the breeze.

Took video when I noticed American Pipits are also bobble butts!

🪶

(Since the alt text box keeps closing & deleting what I wrote) A small yellowish brown bird moves along a stick covered shore of a shallow lake, probing for whatever prey it can find. Periodically it wobbles its tail up and down.

This American Pipit decided it had no fear about my truck.

🪶
A small yellowish brown striped bird stands on small gravel stones. It's round black eye looks out over a small pointed beak. A long tail nearly touches the ground. Wide view of a small bird on the ground, standing amid small gravel stones. In the view is the edge of a truck mirror showing how close the bird has gotten.

Had to look this one up. It's a Prairie Falcon!

🪶
A small raptor perches in the top of a prickly looking green bush. They have a white head with a single brown stripe down their cheek and a brown patch behind their eye, and brown body with folded wings slightly above a lowered tail.

Perfect pose!

🪶
A female American Kestrel perches on a thin bare branch of a low bush. Her distinctive black stripes down her cheeks are clear as she has turned to look over her brown back, black tip wings folder tight, to watch the weirdo with a camera. Her red tail stands out against the bare white stick. The background is a short grass covered pasture.

Interesting chalk art on a random sidewalk.

What do you think it is?
Blue lined chalk art with a possible container with a pink grated lid and a long horned animal facing forward.
