Back Lit Grasses

Backl Lit Butternut Tree (When I was a child, I loved the butternut tree at our summer home and also the butternuts it produced. So, when we moved to OR, we planted two butternut trees. They have grown to majestic sizes but the nuts aer not the same!)

Backlit Tea Rose (When I closed my Eugene office and left several beautiful rose bushes behind that we had planted there, we decided to plant some at home. this is one of them)

I'm Just Learning How To Use These Wings (1 of 1) (There has been quite a saga at the falcon nest this year. Soon after the 4 eggs were laid way up high on a cliff edge, the father disappeared and another male moved in to help the mom. Finally they hatched about 6 weeks ago. Shortly after that, the mom disappeared. Since then the adoptive dad has been feeding them. There has been a 2 yo female hanging around. The 4 chicks fledged 1 1/2 weeks ago. Since then the 2 yo female has been harrassing them. One of the females was found dead on the ground apparently having starved and another was taken to rapture rescue nearby. Now there are just two...this female and a weaker smaller male. The adoptive dad brought two birds in for them yesterday morning but the female managed to get them both. Here she took a little flight but seemed to have been so much heavier with her belly so full that she quickly came in for a screeching halt.)
