This time, I spotted this crab in the Bay:
The next day, we hiked Huckleberry Hill. I did not get any
pictures, but take it from the entire hiking party. The poison oak is a bumper
crop this year! Just a picture of a wildflower locals call Miner's Lettuce. I've seen it before.
I narrowly averted disaster when saw a hummingbird on the
path. That was before I stepped on it. And the next in line didn’t bump into
me. Whew! I couldn’t decide if it was a fledgling or a female, but it didn’t
fly well and looked so scared. There was nothing for but stepping very slowly
over and continuing down the path. I heard at least one hummer in the tree
chattering away, so hopefully all will be well. It’s hard, very hard, but I try
to let nature take its course.
Since mid-Dec last year, we've had 3 pigeons 'crashing' into our balcony. Spooky. Never happened even once over the last 2 decades, and we haven't changed anything.
ReplyDeleteLuckily, they weren't that hurt and after some rest and calm & grains/water, I picked & released them and they flew away. Resilience.
Resilience is good!
