Chinese Lilac on the Trinity River, Trinity County

Just received these beautiful photos from via email.  Chinese Lilac on the Trinity River.  The color of these lilacs is gorgeous.  I do not think these are quite as fragrant as the lilac bushes that I am familiar with.

Bay to Breakers in San Franciso, May 2010


Well if anyone knows me well, they know I did not run in the bay to breakers.  My business partner Justin did over the weekend.  He also tweeted about it, which I cut and paste and posted.   

His props were hilarious!  The Shark and The Monkey!  Thanks Justin for enduring! Glad you made it! Great job!

California Poppies and Yellow Lupin in Chico, California

Recently I went to good ole Chico and of course it was just as wonderful as always.  The weather was gorgeous and I stopped by a little park to take photos of this field filled with yellow lupin, and also native California poppies.

Funny Bird

These birds are very pretty.  He was sitting in our front yard, and as I followed him to take pictures, he just casually walked away from me.  Slightly annoyed maybe that I kept following him.  What kind of bird is he I wonder?  Where are the bird experts?

Beavers building a dam on the Trinity River, Trinity County

The beavers are still around and do not seem to be letting up.  They really are getting on my nerves. I am almost positive them  moved here from upriver after they cleared out the area there.  Does anyone have any beaver prevention methods they would like to share?

Whiskeytown Lake, Shasta County, Spring 2010


Passing by Whiskeytown Lake the other day I stopped and took some photos.  The mountains in the distant still had some snow on them, that will be gone very shortly.  The lakes in northern California are fuller than they have been in many years, and we are very grateful for that.  Makes the summer so much more enjoyable at all the lakes, Shasta, Whiskeytown, and Trinity (Clair Engle).

Old Pear Tree, Pear Blossoms, Trinity County

The pear tree is blooming again, and it is beautiful.  This tree is old and very tall.  It produces pretty good pears, even without being watered.

Bald Eagle on the Trinity River, Trinity County

A few days ago I went to see how many more trees the beavers had claimed for their dam of the Trinity River.  They are very determined.  While I was down by the river, I think the eagle was hunting and I may have startled him/her.  Here are the pictures, honestly I am not even sure it is an eagle.  This one looks different, and has different colors than the ones I normally see.  What do you think?
