Random Photos

Here are a bunch of random photos. Feel free to reload the page to see some more!

A random taste of photos:
A live cicada on my house. Purple coral with yellow tentacles. I believe this is plate coral, a large polyp stony (LPS) coral often referred to as a Disk, Mushroom, Chinaman, Fungia Plate, or Tongue Coral. Giant yellow flower on a zucchini plant.
Soaptree yucca plant at White Sands National Monument, New Mexico. Green succulent plants that resemble artichokes. Macro shot of a bee on a purple flower.
Seabirds at Morro Bay, California. (If anyone knows the species, please let me know and I\'ll add the info!) A garden of succulent plants overlook the ocean in Laguna. This fellow looks like a bee, but may be a hoverfly, AKA flower fly. Any entomologists out there are most welcome to correct me!
Seabirds at Morro Bay, California. Painted Desert within the Petrified Forest National Park, Arizona. A black and white spotted beetle on a morning glory stem. (If you know the species, please let me know and I\'ll add the info!)
Broken rocks colored with lichen near a lake. Bumblebee on a purple columbine flower. A deep red and pink geranium flower over a green leafy background.
The shores of Horseshoe Lake. Danger sign near Wailua Falls. Locals use it for target practice. It reads: “Danger. Do not go beyond wall. State of Hawaii Department of Land & Natural Resources.” Palm trees against a clear blue sky.
A lazy gray-and-white cat naps blissfully. The rugged green cliffs of the Nā Pali coast, seen from a helicopter. Three slivers of light peek through the boardwalk onto the crusted and cracked salt mud.
A red wildflower near Mammoth Lakes. It resembles Indian Paintbrush, but I\'m not sure what it is. A gnarled tree stands alone on a hillside in Pacheco State Park, California. Golf course in the Snake River Canyon.
Giant yellow flower on a zucchini plant. Nene, or Hawaiian goose. The official state bird. This one was very friendly and came close, showing off and looking for a handout. Lacework clouds grace the Sedona sky at sunset.
Black rocks on Kapalua Beach on Maui. Pink flower closeup against a green background. Petrified wood in this desolate landscape has been fossilized and turned to stone.
