I needed this walk to the beach so badly. It really made me feel great

Santa Monica Pier

I never get tired of being sober in nature especially when it makes me cry.

Looking towards Malibu.

Time to head up the hill.

One more look back.

It’s so beautiful. I miss the beach. It’s time to plan a trip.

I used to love going to Galveston’s East Beach to see the sand sculpture competitions. These are awesome! And that first shot is beautiful!

We literally stumbled upon them. I guess they were sculpted over a month ago! I was running around taking pictures of all of them like a little girl, I think people were amused haha.
I thought they were just so cool. Most of the artist were from the west coast. There was even one from Columbia.
The ocean is just so beautiful

@Dazercat I forgot to post these for you the other day.

Amazing. I never did see any of them the whole time I was there. Nice pics.

Is it venomous?

AyBee · December 20, 2021, 12:25pm

No, though the bites do hurt quite a bit

These are from May of this year, over near Lake City, CO. I was telling someone how cool it was that he let me get so close. They replied, “That’s because Dusky Grouse are dumb as dirt.” Kinda busted my bubble.

Got home from a date last night, went to take Chief out.

Greeted by a massive horned owl.

Ushered Chief away to safety, then came back for a photo and some staring. I was no more than 5-6ft away, never been so close to an owl. It was huge! Totally silent as it flew off, pure stealth.

Coincidentally, a date from a few weeks back (nothing came of it, but whatcha gonna do) was/is a wildlife vetrinarian, and she told me they’re “feathered from eyelids to talons”, and that’s how they operate so quietly.
