Awesome reflections in the water!
4 months agoI think Bill S is accurate on the lack of hydration these beauties need!
4 months agoMight be just name confusion (so commonly encountered), but looks like desert marigold. The desert asters I found were purple flowers.
Those yellow many petal flowers are always confusing!

If the swelling is going to be a continued issue (hope not), you might consider a pair of bicycle sandals. I recently had surgery for ingrown toenails (both sides of both big toes). Coincidentally, the podiatrist is also a cyclist. He said I could ride when I can comfortably wear bicycling shoes. My one attempt at street shoes resulted in bleeding toes (sorry if TMI), but the sandals with velcro straps for adjustment work just fine.
Friends have a dog who is on prednisone. The dog is continually hungry and begging for food. She has gained near half again her weight, and is now on a strict diet. Aren't you glad that isn't on your list of side effects?
Isn’t that amazing? I’d like to be here a few weeks later, because the migration is just beginning, there are only about three hummers that stay through the winter here but they claim as many as fifteen different species have been seen here.
4 months agoOh wow, all I could see was a chicken running with its head cut off, but yeah, if you look closely....
Nah, I'm still seeing a headless bird
Nice railing reflections, too!
4 months agoLooks like a wonderful hike!

4 months agoIt’s in the shadow, Janice.. :)
I actually was going to type it seems as if the bird is hopping and skipping instead of preparing for a soft landing ;)
Your bird photos are just stunning. We haven't been to Madera yet this year; your post just kicked it up the list.
4 months agoOoh!
