Sunset
The second evening I’ve seen this female mallard without her male companion.
The wind started blowing as Jake and I came back from our walk. The cotton was streaming from Resa’s tree.

Plugged In
Sunrise
A friend dropped by, and we played guitar for a while. Silver plugged in after my friend left.

So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell, blue skies from pain
Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil? Do you think you can tell?†

Ghost Ducklings In The Ditch
Well after sunset, ghost ducklings were out swimming in the ditch.
Sunset looked like the Tegelen vlag 1955. Tegelen is a municipality in the Netherlands. Herman might know something about Tegelen and its flags.
Feeding Cow Cats
Dawn
The above video is of Laurie, the cat herder, doing her daily routine of feeding the cow cats their grass (there is music with the video).

Mallard Ducks being silly gooses.
Our baby, volunteer, cottonwood.
Walter looked grumpy, and Willa was half asleep in the morning sun.
Nora Owl look positively happy this morning. She was half-asleep with one eye closed. She must have had a good TGIF owl night out with Osric last night. I think she wore out Osric. He was nowhere to be seen.
Dandelion blossoms
It was cloudy and raining most of the afternoon into the evening.

Bottoms up!
I believe this is a Swainson’s Hawk. As shot on the left, cropped, and processed on the right.
Cropped but not processed on the left. Processed on the right.
Willa was laid back tonight. Walter kept his head down with the hawk overhead.
We did not hear or see anything of Nora and Osric tonight. They were either still hunting, or they decided to go out on a TGIF owl date.
