Here are some of the shots I had to unzoom to get!

Oh, it was a WHIPPERSNAPPER red-tailed hawk! (Immature, by the plumage.) You tell 'em, Mx. Raven! You can't be expected to put up with delinquents in the park where you're going to raise a family!

I think the ravens are nesting here again this year: adult flying over croaking, then chasing off a (presumably red-tailed) hawk!

Drove from the mid #WillametteValley to the #BayArea yesterday. We made pretty good time! Surprised at how hot it is this week out here.

@Jgbird I love these birds so much with their whistles. I look forward to them coming back each year, I keep thinking I hear them currently in the #willamettevalley back and ready for the spring green-up

Out the window

The Global Sparkling Wine Regions to Have on Your Radar in 2026 https://tinyurl.com/2dws3err via @SevenFiftyDaily #sparkling #wineworldnews #etna #NewZealand #corsica #willamettevalley

Hearing that #NWS #Portland is having a replacement part for the radar delivered tomorrow 🤞 Adjacent radar systems can capture precip down to about Marion County, and from the California-side, near Curry and Jackson counties. Still a big hole in the map for the #WillametteValley

@dillyd There were two prescribed fires in the #WillametteValley, coupled with some smoke drifting in from fires in the south and east. It makes for nice sunsets, at least.

I would say that we are about six weeks or less away from the end of fire season, and about three from the leaves changing color 🍁

Celebrating Pinot Noir Day.

I was really pleased when a second native #bumblebee (yellow-faced bumble bee) joined the first on this Greater Bird's-Foot-Trefoil yesterday…until my careful aim couldn't keep up with the effects of that second bee's weight on the flower's trajectory!

You know some are invasive
Owls are still a treat!

Hey #Oregon,

What do you call this?

Too small to be a "panhandle"; a "cowlick" maybe?

Pics from my ramble today. I found a remarkable nature park close to home but feeling much further away. This forest is only 24 years old! it was planted in 2000 in a bold bit of ecological restoration on 60 acres of degraded land next to the old dump. You can get here by bike or foot but but not car so it was very quiet. In an hour I saw only 5 humans and 4 dogs.
I wish they had taken better care against invasive plants though, there was a lot of English ivy and Himalayan blackberry.

There's almost nothing I like better than opening a new shipment of glass (it was an early present to myself). Most of this is from the Moretti factory in Murano. A nice range of colors for some new work I'll be making soon.
