Clark County Tre-dux

From desert oases to valleys of fire to backyard gardens...
I still find that it's the minutia, normally overlooked, that captures my eye.




Barely larger than a dime, this little fellow unexpectedly landed on my erstwhile subject.
Good luck, indeed.




Like quicksilver... or a blister in the sun?
Actually, it was a lonely drop of pine sap on a rock.




Almost liquid.




I'll take mine... rocks, with a twist.




...like regulars, the boys bellied up to the bar.




Another heavy drinker.




What ABCs.




Coccinellidae




Ant on infant pine shoot...



...with a side of yucca.




Bring a canteen. And a camera.




I think so, too.

One inch from the earth, two from the driveway.


Window blique.





This fellow landed on my left hand whilst taking
an unrelated photo. Note his cargo.

Bend, Oregon - October, 2006

I've always loved the state of Oregon. It's being, it's meaning, what it protects and cherishes.
Recently, Jen had the opportunity to interact with Central Oregon in a special way.
She wanted us to return and experience it at our own pace. We did.
