  1. I got back to #Palomar Mountain State Park today in search of a couple of Hairstreaks I haven’t seen yet. The Inat data looked promising, and there were #butterflies there. Just not the ones I was looking for. Oh, who knows? Maybe they were there and I simply didn’t see them. I saw these guys instead.

  5. «In un'epoca è in un paese in cui tutti si fanno in quattro per proclamare opinioni o giudizi, il signor Palomar ha preso l'abitudine di mordersi la lingua tre volte prima di fare qualsiasi affermazione. Se al terzo morso di lingua è ancora convinto della cosa che stava per dire, la dice; se no sta zitto.
    Di fatto, passa settimane e mesi interi in silenzio.»

    Da "Palomar" di Italo Calvino

  6. There were a few other hikers at Boucher, enjoying the views and the cool air, but there was only one vehicle: this old camper van.

    Here, I'm looking west towards the Pacific; the clouds that you see in the extreme distance are San Diego's marine layer.

  8. I first climbed to Boucher Summit, then followed a trail south to another summit. Here's Boucher from halfway up that trail; you can see the radio mast at the peak.

    Drei am 19. Juli 1952 verschwundene "Sterne" geben bis heute Rätsel auf

    Innerhalb von knapp einer Stunde waren drei Lichtpunkte am Nachthimmel Kaliforniens nicht mehr zu sehen. Das lässt Fachleute bis heute über die Ursache grübeln"
