“Have you heard the news ~ the world goes on by twos.” 🐾
I love spiderwebs dripping with dew. These two on either side of a provocatively stained post, are my nod to Halloween.
Two young Black-Tail bucks grazed in the dunes one morning at Long Beach.
It’s mushroom and toadstool time in the Pacific Northwest. Though lovely to look at and photograph, Amanita muscaria, commonly known as fly agaric, is considered poisonous, but not deadly. They contain psychoactive chemicals, and have a long history of use in Asia and Northern Europe.
This pair of Western Gulls (Laurus occidentals) looked like they were having an important tête-à-tête on their driftwood perch. I make it a practice to photograph from a distance, and don’t allow Jello to chase birds at the beach – well sometimes the crows – but not the shorebirds and eagles!
Immature ~one-year Bald Eagles, watched as Jello and I circled past. What magnificent birds they are!
A mature pair of Bald Eagles. They mate for life, and the female is larger than the male.
From the Albany Carousel Museum, two pretty ponies.
I’ll close with one of my favorite photo’s of a couple walking the beach, as Sanderling and other shorebirds migrated through.
🐾 When I read Tina’s theme for this week’s Lens-Artists challenge, I thought about the tune, Two by Two, from Tony Bennet’s, 1965 album, Songs for the Jet Set. A lifetime favorite.

These are great Lindy. I Can’t believe u actually got a pair of Juvies as well as mature eagles. And the couple walking in your last image is really terrific
Thank you, Tina. Actually, I have Jello to thank for insisting we go left instead of right and go farther than I had intended to on our morning walk!!!
Wonderful post, Lindy. Loved the two spider webs. What’s the likelihood! The couple on the beach surrounded by birds is stunning. ❤
Lovely couples – the eagles are stunning, but my favorite is the last one! A beautiful meeting humans – birds.
A great series of couples. The couple on the beach must have been lost in each other not to turn round when they heard the birds.
Great selections. Love the eagles. Those ‘shrooms do look deadly!
🎃🍁🍂
WHat a neat capture of those immature Bald Eagles!
Thanks for stopping by and liking this post! These photos were taken last spring on the Long Beach Peninsula, WA!
A great set of pairs, Lindy. One year old bald eagles, what a capture, love the pair of the bald eagles. The last image is magical!!
Thanks, Amy – magical indeed!
