Random Photos

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

A random taste of photos:
Colorful plants grow on the bank of the green waters of a salt marsh. Waimea Canyon, also known as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific. A \
Nene, or Hawaiian goose. The official state bird. This one was very friendly and came close, looking for a handout. A vacant paper wasp nest held in the palm of my hand. The nest is constructed of open hexagonal cells in which the young develop. An open seed pod with fuzzy seeds, on the stalk next to two buds.
A twisted fallen tree near Horseshoe Lake. Macro of a fly, bright green acorns and oak leaves. Millipede on a dead leaf.
Sun-bleached driftwood tree trunk on the beach. Red and gray rock cliffs and towers in Sedona. Petrified wood in this desolate landscape has been fossilized and turned to stone.
Seabirds at Morro Bay, California. This building reminded me of an old decrepit church. (It was probably an emergency snow cabin or something.) Natural CO2 outgassing from a magma body beneath Mammoth Mountain asphyxiated more than 100 acres of trees near Horseshoe Lake in the early 1990s. The gasses become concentrated to deadly levels in enclosed structures such as cabins. Bright pink flowers gather around a fencepost.  (If anyone knows the flower species, please let me know and I\'ll add the info!)
Tabby cat with green eyes. Two people cast shadows onto shallow water at the Alviso salt marshes. Tufa towers at Mono Lake.
Seabirds at Morro Bay, California. Two people standing in the distance on a rocky coastal outcropping, looking at the ocean. Round skylights on the Living Roof atop the California Academy of Sciences.
Lovely marsh muck collects near the bank. Egrets are barely visible in the distance. Hills and mountains backed by a blue sky. Spigots against a red brick wall.
A black crow sits near the crown of a tall tree against a clear blue sky, overlooking the ocean in Laguna. (If you know what kind of tree this is, please let me know!) Tufa along the shore at Mono Lake. Paw prints (probably raccoon) in dried mud.
A pine tree near Mammoth Lakes. (If anyone knows the species, please let me know and I\'ll add the info!) The majestic tuxedo cat in his natural habitat (the lawn). Deadwood on the shore of TJ Lake or Lake Barrett (not sure which).
