Fog and sun

Today started foggy and damp, but even in the morning, the blue sky started to peek out, and by afternoon it was a magnificent day. We had busy workdays and made it into town for more food, made a nice dinner, and went on a walk. Not a bad life.

The backyard here is a bird watcher's dream land, there is a constant stream of forest birds but it looks like a regular backyard.

Here is an interesting Instagram post by the San Francisco "coyote lady" about the many coyotes that call the city home (related to the post on coyotes).

foggy cool morning
Lush bindweed blooming up a storm here in the wild
damp
magic of a dry field
Seeds: life for all new plants, and food for so many of us animals.
Blue sky already!
Fog has completely hidden Black Mountain
How many deer do you see? There are four!
Sun on the often foggy hillside
Black Mountain is almost free of fog by evening!
Subtle sunset
Good Night

Have a quiet day and build in time for reflection.

Sending oodles of love,

Tawnia
