In October 2024 the California Fish and Game Commission unanimously approved naming the western burrowing owl (Athene cunicularia hypugaea) as a candidate for potential listing as a protected species under the California Endangered Species Act.

Early morning Mount Fuji. I love the twilight light from the opposite direction of a sunrise, especially with mountains. This was late autumn season, when I saw lots of autumn leaves at the bottom of the lake. Taken with a CPL to make them visible.

Today, I'm officially launching #Stunday with #EastCoastKin. Here's one of the most stunning places I've been: Moraine Lake

Thanks to everyone sharing their stunning art!

A few mountain peaks with a glacier above Moraine Lake. The mountains appear light blue and the water looks dark blue in the shade. Beams of light are coming over the mountain. There are conifer trees along the shore on the right side and little bits of branches line the sides of the photo

last night was my first time experiencing TRUE dark skies.

it was such an emotional experience and it made me hate light pollution even more.

Venus and the Moon are gorgeous tonight 😍
A not particularly clear picture of a crescent moon with a bright dot of Venus to the upper right. The sky behind is a deepening blue.
