I was upset to see your acct hacked! Originally was bitcoin crap, but then taken over by someone who seemingly posts "normal stuff". I blocked, because all of your comments in history come thru in my memories w/ that hacker's name. I didn't want them to be able to get into mine.

such striking birds! I always think of these as being what our regular bluejays would look like if they dressed up for a black tie affair 😄

Our hummer count is off the charts this year! Filling feeders 2x a day; and so glad about it as the numbers the last couple yrs were down.

love the edge detail!

love it! so artsy!!

Beautiful! we get the summer tanagers here, the males are a red-orange and the females a dull yellow. I hear them more often than see them. Do your western ones have a "peek-at-chu" call like our summer tanagers?

Lovely effect on this photo. Reminds me of my bluebird photo I shot thru a windowscreen (not by choice, but by necessity) and it gave such a soft finish, I was happy to see it didn't ruin the pic.

Just today it dawned on me that I might find you here on bluesky! We've missed you and your beautiful photos!

Visited Tonto Natural Bridge almost by accident 20some yrs ago. It's remained magical in memory. It was a full state roadtrip, enjoyed great overnite stay at Majestic Mountain Inn in Payson, and this park was just up the road on our way north. Told Hubs just yesterday we need to see it again.

I have a few, but I didn't take yours, honest!
