For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: camouflage.
whose woods?

For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: camouflage.
For Norm2.0’s Thursday doors.
This week feels like it is getting away from me. This door is on the hike to Fragrance Lake.
For Wordless Wednesday.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: wanderlust.
“And how are you getting back?” I ask my daughter. “Are you going to edge backwards?”
She laughs.
And she returns without falling in the lake.
This is from Fragrance Lake too. With the overcast light, it is difficult to see what are trees and grasses and mud and what is only a reflection in the water. And it’s all a photograph, so the illusion is complete.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: balance.
My daughter and I hike in Larrabee State Park on Saturday. We went up to Fragrance Lake and around it. I wouldn’t go out these two logs, would you?
But she did!
The small lake was very still. I love the small ripples fanning out from the logs. And clearly the very end is floating. She leaves her cell phone and outer coat on land. How far will she go?
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: note.
And here is the zoom in to the silhouette in the tree: the third eagle. I said that we saw three at once and this is the third.
This is another juvenile.
Right now in the Pacific Northwest, it is a wonderful time to see eagles and hawks. I went to visit my daughter in Bellingham this weekend. With few leaves out, the hawks are very visible, perched high up, waiting for game.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: note.
What am I looking at in this photograph? Taken Saturday a week ago hiking at Fort Worden. No more hints….
For Mundane Monday #196, my prompt is nurse log.
I hike with my daughter around Fragrance Lake, in Larrabee State Park on Saturday. There are lots of people, many with dogs. Fragrance Lake is 0.75 miles around. It is a little overcast and the lake is quite still, surrounded by trees and hills.
This is a nurse log, or really more of a nurse stump. The young tree is getting nutrition and support from the remains of the older tree.
Link your photographs on the topic nurse log. I will list them next week.

Last week’s topic: gull.
klallendoerfer sends wonderful gull photographs.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: flight.
This photograph delights me. The young eagle is so ruffled and scruffy compared to the parent. Feathers all every which way, like a gangly teenager. And looks a bit sullen and grumpy, too. My teens were certainly hungry all the time and I suspect that the eagles were out because they are hungry too, so early in the spring.
Thank you, eagles!
As we walk away from the tree, here is a shot back. Both are still present but you do have to look for them. I look for the shape from a distance.
