Photo looking up at large boulders sitting on top of large mountain of rock. The boulder is a shallow U shape, with a disk of rock sitting on top of each arm of the U.

Photo taken from behind a blue kayaker, which is being paddled by one person towards a number of moored sailboats. It is a foggy day.

Photo taken inside a Catholic Church in Lisbon, Portugal. What is seen is an extremely large altar made up of gold artwork…down the walls and the arc of the ceiling.

Photo looking up at the cloudless blue sky seeing the underside of a Brown Pelican, with wings fully spread. The underbelly of the bird looks to be white or very light grey, the head light grey, short tail and wings dark brown, with a light stripe running down the length of the wings (possibly the the wing bones)

Not every Red-tailed Hawk looks the same β€” meet the dark morph. Same fierce attitude, same iconic russet tail, just draped in shadow. Pure power on a bare branch. πŸ¦…

Photo looking up at the sideview of a red-tailed hawk sitting with its head tucked back, beak a little open, atop a terra cotta tiled roof. Cloudless blue sky.

As this Red-tailed Hawk tried to avoid was being dive-bombed by another bird, it was left with ruffled feathers.

Photo looking out across bay, looking at Morro Rock (very large, mountain of rock, sitting on the coast). Two, little white sailboats in the bay, to the right and and anchored, larger sailboat to the left. Blue sky in background with clouds on the horizon on the  left side of rock.
