Larkfarm Returns

Spring is starting to spring in my garden. Today we have an early iris bloom.

There was a time when I zealously followed livestreams of Apple events. Now the only way I know new devices have launched is through micro.blog comments. Overall, I’m happy that I’ve managed to disconnect from the tech world.

“Waking Up”

Just a tiny succulent in its bed of moss.

“Scribble Faster”

Sometimes the guerilla art around Eugene is more than a bit perplexing.

This fire hydrant reminds me of the Magritte painting captioned (in French, of course) "This is not a pipe."

“The River Rushes On”

North Fork Middle Fork Willamette River, to be precise. Shot from the FR 1910 bridge, 1.6 second handheld.

“In the Woods”

Hiking along gthe Alpine Trail above Westfir.

“Snow Queen”

Wildflowers are starting to show up again.

Looking out through the window of the Office Covered Bridge in Westfir at the railroad bridge just upstream.

43 miles of hiking in the last 3 days. A bit footsore but not dead yet!

“Full Cup”

Pixie cup lichen on a damp day.

“Chickens”

Never know what you’ll find on the trail around here.

“Mushroom Blues”

They’re not really radioactive, honest.

Rainy day spring.

“Sisters”

View of the Three Sisters from Dimple Hill above Covallis on a hazy morning.

Why does the wooly bear cross the road? I dunno, but there was one doing just that when I was out hiking today.

“Bird, Watching”

“Echoes of Geese”

The light was awful at Delta Ponds this morning, but these reflected birds caught my eye.

I think this little guy is a yellow-rumped warbler. Whether he is or not, I was lucky he paused long enough for this picture. He was a hyperactive creature.
