“My dream takes me to the Isle of Skye, A place of peculiar beauty and soul touching magic. I step on this land for the first time in my life Yet my heart knows I belong here.” –Ada Ireland A view of the sea from Duntulm Castle ruins #BlueSkyArtShow #Walls #Photography #ImageandVerse #StunDay #ECK
Missing #Walls This abandoned shack does not have much left to hold it up and is missing some walls. #BlueSkyArtShow #Photography
Some of my #Halloween decorations. I found these sticks in the forest & let them dry for several months in the garage, spray painted them black & wired them together to make a tree. The pumpkin & ghost lights are battery operated. (The ghosts barely light, may return them). #31DaysOfHalloween

#Walls of #Volcanic Rock enshrines a copy of Michael Angelo’s #Pieta at the #PortlandGrotto. It is beautiful and peaceful there with gardens, statues and a chapel. #BlueSkyArtShow #Photography #PNW
My favorite local that I photograph often. Red-shouldered hawk. My name is Leslie and I’m a hawkoholic. 😎🪶
And also male duck, trying hard to make the hop. (He also made it!)
Do you need a thread of ducks hopping up from beach to sidewalk? OF COURSE YOU DO.

The mama tapir is staying close in the forest now that she knows I'm here. She had some bananas last night and then came back by twice in the middle of the night to check again. The fact that she came by so frequently means that she has her baby nearby. #tapiroftheday #tapirs
It’s popcorn lizard season! Baby western fence lizard, adorably giving me side eye #herps #herpetology #lizerbs #MentalHealthHike #animals

For #FrogFriday, an Indian Green Frog (Euphlyctis hexadactyla), observed along a brackish water estuary at night in Goa Province, India. This is one of the few frog species known to ingest plant matter as adults. #herps #frogs #NaturePhotography 🌿
GREEN FROG IN THE GARDEN!! They only visit occasionally, stopping at the pond for a couple days or weeks as they’re passing through #herps 🌿
Doing a little cleanup on the patio today and found this curly noodle! Not really a danger noodle, ‘mildly venomous’, not really a danger to people - except for the initial surprise!! It was sleeping under this plastic plate. Seemed small, young probably. California Lyre snake #herps
A big Mojave Rattlesnake @evowo.bsky.social and I came across after hiking for hours without seeing too much on a recent weekend. Real pretty around this area of Arizona, quite different looking to the ones I'm used to seeing in the western portion of the state. #herps 🐍

Dear local goths, if you’re going to have sex in the employee graveyard please pick up your hairspray bottles
I don’t care how much marketing they do Cadillac will never correlate with racing in my mind. Probably cause I grew up riding with her in her land yacht that sorta floated over bumps and potholes
