December 2nd storm

4.5 inches this morning and cooooold temps. It’s very welcome moisture during this drought. The mountains were roiling with clouds and that made for some interesting timelapses.

Full Moon Risin’ 11_30_20

OK… this is the actual full moon (the Full Beaver Moon actually). I thought it was yesterday and thanks to other posts on the web, I realized I’m not good at details like reading calendars correctly. Why so many moon photos? Why not… what else I gotta do during lock down except work on my moontan?

Midnight storm 11_24_20

We had a storm move through around midnight and these shots are the aftermath. First shot shows a moon rainbow, the first time I’ve seen one of these.

Robin’s bath

Now I know why the birdbath has been emptying at a rapid rate lately.

Pair of Evening Grosbeaks at the bath

This couple was even more aggressive than the Robins about drinking undisturbed.
