    The Bluebird has a partner and showed her the box today.
    He's a keeper: he cleans the house 😍, removing dry leaves and singing while working. Unless his bill is full.
    Looks like there will be lots of Bluebird photos in the near future.

    A weathered wooden nest box, a blue bird is just flying out of the entrance with a brown leaf in his bill. The female, sitting on a rod below the box, is watching him.

        A close-up photograph of a Yellow Flag Iris,  just beginning to emerge.

Centered in the frame is a slender, elongated flower bud. The top of the bud reveals the bright, vibrant yellow petals tightly wrapped together, waiting to bloom.

The background consists of a soft, beautifully blurred field of lush green, blade-like leaves.

          Ocean In The Sky (2024)
          Named for the wave like cloud inversion below, I took this image early morning, shortly after golden hour and before the heat of the day burned off the clouds below.

          I was motivated to capture a 1:1 ratio image of this location as part of a photographic challenge I set for myself in the region.

          Dark, needle-like basalt pinnacles rise from the foreground escarpment edge in sharp silhouette, framing a view across a vast sea of cloud that fills the valleys between multiple receding mountain ridges and serrated peaks stretching to the horizon. The black and white treatment deepens the contrast between the near-black foreground spires and the luminous white ocean of cloud below, with successive ridgelines fading progressively lighter into the pale background sky.

            Typically, males would be “rubbing quite vigorously” on their perch, a toy or
a twig, or on their owner’s hand, foot or shoulder, Heys said. Females tended
to lift their tail and back on to convenient objects.
