Follow the Fork in the Road

This experiment didn’t work out quite right.

I attempted to a close up of the lock and chain assembly, I’m not pretending it’s a good image but merely an attempt. I thought it would be a bit more interesting then it is, in fact it’s not interesting at all.

Adaptability

Beavers may be the least able to adapt to a changing environment due to a habitat that is basically built for them unlike other species who developed their own.

Arctic and Common Terns; The Yosemite (Oak) fire is contained. The McKinney not so much.

but there are several similarities between Terns and Gulls as well. However the knockout punch is the Terns Red bill and the Seagulls yellow/orange beak.

Weather, Wildfire and Herons

Many smaller fires start up continually with most being contained within a day or two. However we have a major fire that started on the Oregon Border, far North of us. The McKinney fire is raging out of control since starting Saturday night

Fire Hawks, well known in Australia; Are our birds of prey fire-starters too?

I am tired of these people and support capital punishment for Arson as well as several other unforgivable crimes against humanity; arsonist being the number 5 on my list.

Over 100 Tern species; They all look pretty much the same.

To be seen from this distance it has to be a towering inferno, most of the time we see smoke. With this fire we can see actual flames from this distance, it’s a huge fire.

The Yosemite Wildfire has taken on a new life; The Birds are around but not too active.

I’m expecting the smoke when I awake tomorrow morning but I won’t be too disappointed if it doesn’t turn the sky Orange; again.

I was raised near the confluence of the Mississippi and the Minnesota Rivers I will say there is no way anyone on the Mississippi will go for that; no way.

Abstract Photos with my Explanation of Why.

The Texans I worked with in the California Desert would say when the temperature hit 115-120º F, “at least it’s a dry heat.” To which someone would reply “yeh, so is an oven.”

First Photo with the New Lens; Wild Fire Comments.

I will be going out for an hour in a few minutes with the hope of being presented a good opportunity. Now that the smoke is partially cleared with the air breathable I can go outside. I want to catch that Golden Sunset;
