Random Photos

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

A random taste of photos:
Grand Canyon Supergroup - Hakatai Sandstone - 1,180 million year old rock. Ground squirrel, standing on a post. A green, red, and black spotted bug on a Celosia flower.  (If you know the species, please let me know and I\'ll add the info!  Maybe some kind of shield beetle?)
A big carpenter bee diving into the morning glory. A sky full of clouds threatens to rain on hills and a green plain. Closeup of a blue dragonfly on a pinecone.
Tiny pink blooms on a flower stalk from a Heuchera plant, AKA Coral Bells. A pond reflects fluffy white clouds on a mountain-flanked plain in Idaho. This is either a Sharp-shinned Hawk or a Cooper\'s Hawk, eating a smaller bird. I believe it is a juvenile (fledged some weeks ago). This hawk family lived in a eucalyptus tree on a golf course.
A strangely shaped tufa tower at Mono Lake. A collection of bones and stones on a round post surrounded by red rock. Trees reaching for the sky.
Spigots against a red brick wall. Gentle waves lap the shore at Hanalei Bay. Petrified wood in this desolate landscape has been fossilized and turned to stone.
The shores of Horseshoe Lake. A bright red and yellow sunflower in front of a green ivy-covered brick wall. Tufa towers at Mono Lake.
\ A big carpenter bee diving into the morning glory. Closeup of green, yellow and red leaves of a plant.
Three slivers of light peek through the boardwalk onto the crusted and cracked salt mud. Waimea Canyon, also known as the Grand Canyon of the Pacific. Red rock towers in Sedona.
Trees traverse the hills in Pacheco State Park, California. Painted Desert within the Petrified Forest National Park, Arizona. A seagull standing on a post with the ocean in the background.
Dried thistles against a pale brown background. Petrified wood in this desolate landscape has been fossilized and turned to stone. A pair of snails meet on a wood post.
