I was on Turtle Nest Watch this morn... no turtles emerged, but I got to say a rad sunrise.

Beach view with orange and red cloudy sky pre-dawn. The colors are reflected in. The wet sand.

The sun shining on this turtle and ocean floor is one of nature's greatest pieces of art. This is from Maui. 🦑🐍🐢

Close up of two tapdoles in a pond with grass beneath them. They are facing each other and look like they are kissing as one's mouth is on the other's.

Gold Creek Pond in the Cascade mountains. It's beautiful and was easily accessible. It is now closed for revamping for the next 5 to 7 years! I'm glad the nature will have time to rehabilitate, but I will miss it.

Stereotypical alpine lake scene snowy mountains behind and a reflective lake in front. Colors are orange/fall-like. Lots of evergreen trees encricle the lake. The reflection is very clear.

Right place, right time. Oregon coast and a bunch of sea birds on a sea stack out in the ocean. I was on the beach.

Shot of a high hillside with several sea birds on it. The full moon is in the background with a gull standing right in front of it and framed perfectly.

This is what happens when the wave flowing back out collides with the new wave coming in. #maui #marinelife #surf #waves #nature #ocean #green #love #goodmorning #zen #nokings

Elk fighting in the yard just now. If you turn up the sound you can hear them whining at each other. Seems like a mostly friendly contest. #elk #animals #nature #antlers #mammals #Seattle #pnw #mountains #goodnight #awesome

Skull of a wild goat on a remote Maui beach at sunrise. I wonder if I saw her there when she was still alive. Beautiful and haunting. #mammals #marinelife #nature #photography #love #nokings
Skull of a goat with horns. It's sitting in a rocky beach. The ocean is behind in the horizon and the sky has pink clouds from the rising sun.

Shot is tight over a cliff looking down on a tidepool and the open ocean with lots of lava rocks and cliffs all around. On the right edge of the pic is a single ladybug at the edge of the cliff.

Water rushing over rocks and a coral reef in a Maui tidepool creates a beautiful abstract. #photography #art #marinelife #eastcoastkin #hawaii #love #nokings
Kaleidoscope looking loose mosaic of rocks and tidepool creatures distorted by the ocean rushing over them. Mostly sand colored with some blues and reds.

Went looking for elk in their usual hang-out spot this morning... didn't see them, but I got a nice #sunrise.

A constellation of starfish barely hanging on at a cave entrance. I can relate. 🦑 #photography #scape
Tidal pool scene with cave wall covered in starfish and other tidepool creatures. They are clinging to the wall and hanging over shallow green water sloshing in from the adjacent beach.

I'm looking forward to the snow, but maybe not as much as these deer are (from last year - it hasn't snowed yet this year).

It is only male Green Sea Turtles that have huge tails like this. It doesn't develop until they are sexually mature (20+ years old). Until then, it is very difficult to identify their gender. 🦑🐍

Large green sea turtle with very big and long tail swimming in blue-green water. There is a reef below and the sun's rays are dappling through.
