There’s a video of this Bear, taken from the photographers Boat, but it’s a closed FB group, so I don’t think any of y’all can see the vid.

Unless one of youse knows how to “hack” fb videos

After Multnomah Falls up in the Gorge, this is probably the 2nd most photographed view in Oregon.

I have a couple hummingbirds that live very close by, I see them flitting back and forth, occasionally on my deck scouting my flowers, and once or twice I have seen one on my Bird Bath or buzzing the fir trees up above, but do they ever go feed at the hummingbird feeder I shelled out some cash for? Noooo! I have never seen a hummingbird feeding off my feeder, nor have my neighbors on theirs, it just ain’t right.

eta, and yet my hummingbird feeder occasionally runs out…the plot thickens.

A Giant “swirl” of pollen on Crater Lake.

I was last at Crater in '09 and I remember remarking on the pollen on the lake. It wasn’t swirling tho, that’s pretty cool

I’d never heard of these swirls before, but I guess it is a thing that happens once in a while, the wind and air temps at the right time of year etc
