the one above was taken when the tree surgeons were cutting down my Holly tree, and were on their break.. .. the Robins always come out if we're working in the garden and they'll sit on a piece of equipment like a shovel handle or like the safety hat...waiting for a worm to be dug up...

Per last night's post, did a 5 hour tour today, driving 60 miles to a familiar area where with my Pixel 10 Pro, captured the below. As suspected, minor numbers of early spring wildflowers were rising in these green hills. Although I carried my Sony a6700 gear and big tripod, I only crudely used the Pixel hand held as better conditions for more serious work will be later over the next couple months. The quick road trip was much more valuable getting a read on when and where in that area to visit later. In our San Francisco Bay Area region, it is always the first to have native wildflowers. The Pixel does am impressive job capturing such informal close-up shots.

A winter dormant blue oak, quercus douglasii, that will leaf out in about another month. Its bark is covered by common greenshield lichen, flavoparmelia caperata. Hanging off its bark branches is lace lichen, ramalina menziesii. Below in the grasses, the herbs with rounded leaves are tasty minor's lettuce, claytonia perfoliate, one can make salad with, and is loaded with vitamin C.

An interesting graphic of dense Pacific poison oak, toxicodendron diversilobum, brambles with new red leaves. This would make a great a6700 focus stack blended high detail shot with my Sony a6700. So may return soon, given a mostly sunny day with really light breezes. And note, this person is highly allergic to it haha.

That line of gigantic palm trees along that far hill is an oasis in the desert. They are growing on the San Andreas fault where the water bubbles up through the cracks in the rocks. It's really wet there. I wanted one big photo but I don't like how panoramic pictures on my iPhone sometimes distorts the image. So I took 3 separate photos and used Affinity software to stitch them together to make this. I was amazed how what a nice job it did. You cannot tell it's 3 images even on the high resolution image.
