Out my kitchen window this morning, a flurry of feathered activity sent me running for my iPhone.

Lesser Goldfinch, Rufous Hummingbird and Downy Woodpeckers

Everybody get’s some!

Mama Downy feedling fledgling.

~ Feeding Fledgling Flicker ~

Posted on June 24, 2018 by Lindy Le Coq

This morning I was treated to a close-up view of a Northern (Red-Shafted) Flicker bringing it’s fledgling in for some easy grub from my suet feeder.

There are other fledglings being introduced to the deck feeding stations, and the grounds. I’ll share more photos as the opportunities arise.

To my friends on WordPress – please forgive my absence and tardiness in viewing your sites (not to mention contributing more regularly). I am currently working on a time-sensitive project with my sister, which will keep my focus in another direction for another three weeks. As time and energy allow – I will return to seeing what’s up in your worlds!

~ View From Inside North Head Lighthouse ~

Posted on June 15, 2018 by Lindy Le Coq

In the many years I’ve enjoyed seeing this lighthouse from the outside, yesterday, for the first time I was on the inside. Now open for visitors, the structure is being restored to it’s original condition.

After entering at ground level, a narrow stairway spirals to the top.

Windows along the stairway, covered over for many years, frame the view

South and North

Miles and miles of Pacific Ocean looking West.

From the top of North Head Lighthouse – beyond the rocky shore in the foreground – Long Beach stretches in the distance. An inverse image of my 6/13/18 Wordless Wednesday post!

Dune runes always fascinate me – how the wind blowing at ground level moves bent stems of dune-grass creating natural sand drawings.

And, in the bright morning light there is the addition of lovely arched shadows!

~ Dancing Wu Li Master ~ WPC: Twisted ~

Posted on May 29, 2018 by Lindy Le Coq

On May 6, as Jello and I were on our walk, this parrot tulip in a neighbor’s yard stopped me in my tracks!

It brings to my mind the title of Gary Zukav’s book, The Dancing Wu Li Masters.

“…the Chinese term for physics is ‘Wu Li’, or “patterns of organic energy.” Zukav, among others, conceptualized ‘physics’ as the dance of the Wu Li Masters – teachers of physical essence.”

And what a perfect excuse to hear again a favorite song-poem by Joni Mitchell.
