Barred Owl and Anna’s hummingbird at Greenway Park in Beaverton, OR. Watching walkers and bikers go by. A beautiful fall bike ride near the Portland non war zone. #birds #owl #hummingbird #biking # nature

A Flicker gorging on sunflower chips. A change from our usual gang of Goldfinches. #birds #birdatfeeder #flicker #woodpecker #Oregon

Aoifa had a play date. No Anatolian Shepard was harmed in the filming of this video. All Roland wants is the pink pig. #dogs #dogsofbluesky #doodle #dogsatplay #anatolianshepherd #weratedogs

Aoifa is shaking and barking incessantly from the fire works. The cul de sac behind us has been setting off fireworks for over an hour. The Trazodone is kicking in and she is getting comfort from her grandma. #dogsofbluesky #dogs #fireworks

Thousands showed up at the Beaverton City Park. Beaverton, OR is a large suburb of Portland. The Woodlander’s Music Band played before the speakers, one of the best Folk bands in the Northwest, and was a lovely way to spend an afternoon. #NoKings #Beaverton #Oregon #Resist

5 yo granddaughter offering her blanket to mama and babies. If you look closely you will see mama and babies waddling off.

I had a bit of an adventure on my dog walk this morning. I saw a man sitting on the curb and a mother mallard, in obvious distress. I saw a water grate and the chicks were in the water. Another neighbor and family were able to rescue them. See comment for pics #rescue #birds #ducklings #neighbors

Back at you, from my own Doris. Also known as the Lolly rose, since my 91 yo wonderful mother-in-law just moved in, and we needed a rose to join the ones for my two daughters and my mom. She picked Doris Day for her rose, and both are thriving in their new home.

The suet feeder is Squirrel proof, Starling proof, but not Flicker proof. I am OK with that.

My husband spotted this in the wild today. I love this one. #Elonsucks #Tesla #Resist

My husband and I just traveled to your area, and stayed at Cochise Stronghold ranch with our trailer. We saw a recently released Golden Eagle and hiked the Cochise Indian Trail . We also went to the Amerind Museum and Portal area. Loved our stay in your area. And met other blue dots.

She has gone through a few lambie’s, her current is not lambchop, but another lamb of unknown origins - probably Home Goods. Notice missing threads.

We have been traveling since the beginning of the month through the SW, mainly in Arizona, New Mexico and now Utah. This is one of my favorite of many great pictures. A cliff dwelling seen at Canyon De Chelly in Arizona. There is magic in the SW. #Arizona #cliffdwelling #canyondechelly #navaho

Another Golden Eagle pictures. taken by an IPhone 16. This is of the Golden Eagle coming into the Hack to get fed by Kalen Pearson the falconer who was instrumental in rehabilitating the starving fledgling (the If Bluesky allowed live action you would see the full swoop). 🦉 #raptors #goldeneagle

My husband Sheepadoodledad@bsky.social took a number of Golden Eagle pictures of Ava, a recently rehabilitated young Eagle. The Eagle was released from the Arizona Raptor Center near Cochise Stronghold Ranch in Arizona. Go to Sheepadoodledad for more pictures. 🪶 #raptors #Goldeneagle #Arizona

I made this lap quilt for my daughter. I am scrap heavy, and I have made a few quilts using Sally Schneider’s book, “Scrap Quilts Fit for a Queen, Or a King, Twin or Lap. They are all much appreciated. #Quiltsky #Quilt #FiberArts

Harriers near Bow, WA. Check out the white patch on the base of the tail. I don't know what tasty morsel one dropped, but fun to get a picture. Photos taken by my husband, Sheepadoodledad 🪶 #raptors #washingtonstate #salish #photography
