The women whom I love and admire for their strength and grace did not get that way because shit worked out. They got that way because shit went wrong, and they handled it. They handled it a thousand different ways on a thousand different days, but they handled it. Those women are my superheroes. -Elizabeth Gilbert

A Monarch flew around the yard today. The first shot, it nearly collided with a sparrow or finch. I wish I had a Conoclinium greggii plant. they are such good nectar. I also saw my first ever (at this house) Tiger swallowtail (not pictured).

I believe in you.

Speak up for grizzly bears! Urge Congress to oppose the Grizzly Bear State Management Act.

Two’fer Tuesday! A pair of Trumpeter Swans strengthen their bond doing a little courtship display. I like the “chest bump” at the end to celebrate.

I would think so too. I called the city dept. that oversees it. The guy said if flowers start blooming, they will shut it down. It's so sad.

Blurry sort of, I was across the yard. But it did rain good for about an hour today. So thankful.

Arizona sunset and just after

(I think it was mama) Mockingbird who had a bunch of nest stuff in her beak today just before it started raining.

This was one of my favorite geraniums. I loved the single petal-ness and the pretty pink color.

2019 was a #SuperBloom year. Walker Canyon, Lake, Elsinore, California. It was magnificent. The hills were an absolutely blinding orange. They city shuts the canyon down now if the flowers start blooming good because people park crazy places and behave badly.

Walker Canyon, Lake Elsinore, California. Photo 1 shows how someone with a dog left its poo hanging from the fence. Photo 2, look how many people went off the established trail to "get a better picture." These are the people who helped keep this place shut down when the flowers start blooming good😞

Orchid and African violet.
