This is the bald eagle that lives out in Round Valley, and fishes most afternoons out behind the house, in Pleasant Valley reservoir. It was still several hundred yards above me, so it’s not a sharp photo, but the low afternoon sun did light it well. #owensvalley #sierranevada #california #bishopcalifornia #photography #baldeagle
This morning’s sunrise - another dramatic one. #owensvalley #sierranevada #california #bishopcalifornia #bishop #photography #landscapes #landscapes
Just a creek at the base of Wheeler crest, in Round Valley. #owensvalley #sierranevada #california #bishopcalifornia #bishop #photography #landscapes
Just tonight’s sunset. That is all #owensvalley #sierranevada #california #bishopcalifornia #bishop #photography #landscapes #iphoneography #sunset
I just liked the way the sun was lighting Round Valley on my evening walk with Yoshi. #owensvalley #sierranevada #bishopcalifornia #bishop #california #photography #landscapes #iphoneography
Morning stars, before work this morning. The long exposure feature on the new iPhones is pretty good, especially for hand-held. #iphone16promax #iphoneography #longexposure #starscape #owensvalley #stars
First snow of the season on Mt. Tom. #sierranevada #mttom #mustangmesa #owensvalley #bishop #bishopcalifornia
Spiderwebs at sunset. I snapped this on Wednesday while walking Yoshi out back. #owensvalley #sierranevada #california #bishopcalifornia #photography #landscapes #spiderwebs
Just another beautiful Spring day here in Bishop. Blue skies, snow capped peaks, lilacs blooming - I hope your day is as lovely, my fellow Mastodonians… #owensvalley #california #bishopcalifornia #sierranevada #bishop #landscapes #easternsierra

I was out walking the dog as usual this afternoon, and saw the bald eagle that lives out in Round Valley, doing some fishing in Pleasant Valley Reservoir. #owensvalley #california #bishopcalifornia #mustangmesa #baldeagle #pleasantvalleyreservoir
Our afternoon stroll out by the canal, while getting the tires rotated. Cows-n-calves. #owensvalley #sierranevada #california #bishopcalifornia #bishop #cows
Just out back walking the dog. I never tire of the view from the house. #owensvalley #bishopcalifornia #bishop #sierranevada #california
Woke up in Chicago, just got home this evening to several inches of snow here in Bishop, California. Why is it *more* wintry in California than freakin Chicago!? #chicago #winter #bishopcalifornia #bishop #snow #owensvalley
Why is the US being supportive of such things in the middle east omg, where did they ever get the idea that it's ok to mass murder and land thieve 🤪

With the tech bros wanting to make a new city out there, and me mentioning Owens valley in my frustration posts. This is relevant. Who knows what kind of bs they will build.

Haven’t taken the Vespa out for ages, and since it was a beautiful Winter’s day here in the Eastern Sierra, I took a ride into town. I hope you’re all having an enjoyable day, too! #owensvalley #sierranevada #california #bishop #vespa #vespagtv
Saw this bald eagle fly out from Pleasant Valley reservoir while I was out walking the dog… #owensvalley #sierranevada #baldeagle #pleasantvalleyreservoir #roundvalley
Our whole-home solar solution is live! We’re producing more power than we use, storing in a battery array, and no longer have to worry about those annoying PSPS power outages. And reducing that carbon footprint as the cherry on top! #solarpower #solar #homesolar #enphase #wholehomebackup #owensvalley #sierranevada #california
The October 14 #AnnularSolarEclipse seen with the #OwensValley Radio Observatory Long Wavelength Array (OVRO-LWA) in the Owens Valley #Radio Observatory in California: https://news.njit.edu/researchers-capture-first-images-radio-ring-fire-eclipse - the Moon appears in front of the solar corona which is very bright at these wavelengths.
Happy Indigenous People’s Day! I got to hike to the famous Sky Rock petroglyph this morning. It’s as impressive as I’ve heard, but a little hard to photograph. The only way to really see the whole thing is from a rock above it, which is hard for a guy my age to manage. I did make it, so here’s a spherical projection panorama I took from that vantage point. You are not allowed to climb on the petroglyph rock itself, so share and enjoy! #petroglyph #owensvalley #skyrock #indigenous #indigenousart #bishop #volcanictablelands
I didn’t even see this little guy until I walked by, and it rattled at me. #rattlesnake #snake #owensvalley #california
I don’t see them often, but I did manage to catch this bald eagle as it flew by during my evening walk with the dog… #baldeagle #owensvalley #california
It was a dark and stormy night… #sierranevada #mttom #owensvalley #eveningwalk
