Found an egg and a water bunny on our Easter morning knock about! Actually, this bad boy beaver we call Mossback, I think only the second time I've captured him. I am assuming it is a he, a very big they at any rate.

A very large rusty-brown beaver in shallow pond water chewing on a stick,quite furry with tiny eyes, big, dark nose and small cup-shaped ears.
Half moon in the morning sky, a bit more than a half actually, you can see many craters on its lower edge.

This little marsupial popped their head up to say hello. And then buggered off.

Footbridge in White Mountains, New Hampshire

This is one of the prints the Red Jacket Inn in Franconia NH bought from me. I assume my prints are still in some of the rooms, though half the hotel burned a few years ago. It was a huge job -- I printed these large and framed them in 30 x 30 with nice anti reflective glass. It seems the hotel is open again.

Yesterday it was fun, sunny spring-time, today it's grey, windy, snow-time.
Welcome to Finland, I guess 😁

Wild From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail by Cheryl Strayed

A powerful, blazingly honest, inspiring memoir: the story of a 1,100 mile solo hike that broke down a young woman reeling from catastrophe--and built her back up again.

@bookstodon





At twenty-six, Cheryl Strayed thought she had lost everything. In the wake of her mother's devastating death, her family scattered, and her own marriage was soon destroyed. With nothing more to lose, she made the most impulsive decision of her life: to hike the Pacific Crest trail from the Mojave Desert through California and Oregon to Washington State--and to do it alone. She had no experience as a long-distance hiker, and the trail was little more than "an idea, vague and outlandish and full of promise." But it was a promise of piecing back together a life that had come undone. Gorgeously told, sparkling with warmth and humor, Wild is the vivid story of a young woman forging ahead against all odds on a journey that maddened, strengthened, and ultimately healed her.

    This is an acorn woodpecker granary I found on a hike at Joseph Grant Park, east of San Jose. The acorn woodpeckers store the acorns in the trees. #hiking #photography #woodpeckers

    Red Ginger plant in bloom. A vibrant red tropical flower stands prominent among lush green foliage, basking in the sunlight. It has a unique structure with spiral-like blooms that stack densely as they ascend. Also known as Alpinia purpurata, a native Malaysian plant with showy flowers on long brightly colored red bracts.

    Giant hazy sun plus wildflowers sunset, Scoville Reservoir, Wolcott, Connecticut. July 19, 2020, 7:04 PM.

    A pale blue gray evening sky with long gray clouds near the horizon The sun is setting behind a blanket of rather thick haze, making it appear to be a gigantic golden disc just above a line of trees. We are walking a dirt and gravel path beside a small, scrub-covered knoll to our right with a grassy strip near the road. To our left is a thicket of tall weeds and dark pink wildflowers and then a tree.

    Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting sunset (h/t George Harrison), Hidden Lake, Fall Mountain, Plymouth, Connecticut. February 18, 2018, 5:44 PM. After a day of thawing, numerous holes in the ice reflect the pinks and golds of a sunset under a crescent moon.

    We are standing atop a ridge, looking down at a small frozen lake surrounded by low wooded ridges silhouetted in the evening light. It is past sunset, the sky is a pale blue along the horizon, deepening as you look up towards the crescent moon. A number of streaky, hazy clouds are still catching bright pinks, golds and oranges from the sun below the horizon. The surface ice on the lake is very thin and reflects darker and more muted versions of the sky colors. It has melted all the way through in many places, leaving small holes where water mirrors the brighter colors.

    Hiked into/out of a volcanic crater today. It was raining (not unexpected in a rainforest), but it made it feel like Jurassic Park and I got some neat pictures :blobcatpuffyblush:

    Mosstodon might like a couple of these.

    Streaks of gold and silver sunset, Scoville Reservoir, Wolcott, Connecticut. June 8, 2020, 7:56 PM.

    Standing on the shore of a large lake. There are small leafy shrubs to our right and left, several partially submerged boulders just offshore. In a sky streaked with long hazy silver clouds, the sun is setting above the wooded far shore, looking like a large blob of golden fire and tinting the streaky clouds near and along the horizon gold and orange. All this is mirrored on the lightly rippled lake surface.

    Sunset's last gleaming. As the twilight fades, amazing color lingers more than a half hour after the actual sunset. New Britain Reservoir, Southington, Connecticut. October 13, 2019, 6:49 PM.

    It is well past sunset with a deep blue twilight settled over the scene. Clouds near the western horizon are still tinted vibrant dark pink and deep purple shades, mirrored on the very slightly rippled lake surface below. A partially submerged rock a few feet offshore and the entire wooded far shore of the lake are silhouetted black in the dim light.
