Also for the Ragtag Daily Prompt: fish.
Taken in 2017 at the Baltimore Aquarium.

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 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 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.
Here at last are my two star close ups of the eagles. I am standing on the path right below the tree. The eagles are putting up with me with amazing patience. They are so high up that other people are walking right by and not noticing. Take out the earbuds! Look up!
I am submitting both to the Ragtag Daily Prompt: flight.
And thank you, eagles!
Meanwhile, the juvenile has decided to ignore me.
The juvenile really looks the same size as the adult and there is no nest in the tree. It must already be flying.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: frosted.
I am still gently walking towards the tree. The eagles are aware of me, but they are way up there. I think that is a frosted look that I am getting.
We were still working our way around the Fort Worden beach. I am hoping that the eagle will be in the tree where I can get a great close up.
And here is the tree.

Darn. My eagle is gone.
