Tuesday, June 22nd, 2021@anonsally was asking for bird photos from my and my partner in crime’s current trip to the mountains; I’ll probably share some bird photos later, but this morning’s (windy) hike involved a singing Brewer’s sparrow and green-tailed towhee, so I took some video.
I needed to use a wind screen on the camera. I actually have one, but left it in the car. Apologies; I’m a video newbie.

Thursday, June 30th, 2016Mountain Pride (Penstemon newberryi) was John Muir’s favorite flower. I came upon a small patch of them on a rocky outcrop on the trail to Heart Lake.

Saturday, July 4th, 2015Some photos I took in the last few days, most of which I spent hiding from crowds near Mammoth Lakes.
That’s an old Jeffrey Pine and the last light on Bloody Mountain from when I was walking Rory last evening, and Rory himself having fun in Macleod Lake earlier that day. Then there’s an old, lightning-scarred lodgepole pine from the Heart Lake trail today. I really liked that tree.
The rest are flowers along the trail today: mariposa lily, larkspur, manzanita, scarlet gilia, Indian paintbrush, Western blue flax, and a not-quite-focused shot of some cute little blue jobs I have no idea about; maybe some kind of phlox?
The trail was almost empty because everyone was at the parade in town. Way to go, fellow humans.
