A year ago this week, I got to take an amazing journey to #Washington state and got to behold real #mountains for the first time. I am still in awe of the beauty there and am filled with a great desire to return.

So this is fun. Last night I saw several first time moths, and this tiny moth (like barely 5mm long), the Yellow-winged Oak Leafroller #Moth (#Argyrotaenia quercifolania ) looked interesting in normal light, but it fluoresces quite strongly under 365nm UV!

It's #MothMonday and today I offer a member of genus Lacinipolia, one of the Arches Moths of which there are several species which all wear the same #lichenesque markings.

OMG BIRD!
I don't normally do much bird #photography , my telephoto lens is old, soft, and beset with ridiculous purple fringing. However this Red Shouldered #Hawk , #Buteo lineatus, allowed me to get rather close! š

I have enjoyed seeing y'all's #eclipse
photos today. I sadly was unable to make this one, but i got some banger photos (even if I did forget to shoot RAW) of the one in 2017 which conveniently happened right over my brother's house!
