This weekend the weather hasn't been great for birding, but for a little bit of that feeling of #warmth, here is a female #yellow #wagtail I photographed last week Thursday in the #Arkemheen polder. Beak full of insects to feed to her chicks.

Discover Vancouver Island Through Photography With Catherine Babault

Last weekend I visited Loowit, or Mt St Helen's, the most active volcano in Washington State's Cascade range. It's famous for its explosive 1980 eruption that blew off its peak, sending several cubic kilometers of rock into the atmosphere, blanketed eleven states with a layer of ash, and killed 57 people. I went up the Southeast side of the mountain via a place called Ape Canyon. A short thread with lots of plants and photos follows.

Another person on a bike hit by a car driver near my home today. The driver turning off a side street onto the main road didn’t fully stop for the bike that was rightfully crossing the intersection in the bike lane. Good news: The cyclist was able to leave on his own after being treated in the ambulance.

Dear Drivers: Please fully stop 🛑 at cross streets and intersections.

@ascentale @i_cannot_today @PamelaSchure @bikenite #Bikenite A6. 😱 No no no no! Super cheap bikes break so easily. And bike maintenance is so cheap! In fact, it's BETTER to buy an old bike and repair it (and cheaper) than it is to buy a new bike!!!

Look up the "boots theory of socioeconomic unfairness". It's MORE EXPENSIVE to churn through cheap stuff constantly than to buy something slightly more expensive which will last a lifetime.

Anyone else a fan of Pojar and Mackinnon?The best book I’ve ever found for plants of the Pacific Northwest has just been updated, so I backed the kickstarter! I'm a shoot-first-identify-later kind of photographer, and this is by far my favorite resource for any plants in the PNW. Please consider backing this incredibly valuable reference, and get a copy for yourself or to give to the plant lover in your life. It’s the best!

I think that violet-green swallows have a bit of an attitude. 😂 Also I tried to get a photo of it in flight and ended up with lots of photos of the sky.

Fine Art America, where my photo website is hosted, is apparently having a 20% off sale this whole weekend through Monday. They don't give us artists advance notice when they do this. 😂 So I just found out I'm having a sale. That's some top level entrepreneurship right there.
In case you have wanted to purchase any of my images, now's a good time. Thanks for taking a look! (boosts welcome)
