I watched a hawk take one out of the sky once, unreal how fast they dive, feathers going everywhere. We have tons of doves, they scatter fast when the hawk flies over.

Neat shot jb!

I see the red tailed hawks around here swooping down on pigeons and rabbits. Hey they gotta eat too but sad for the prey at the moment it happens. Glad for the Hawk who got to have a good dinner. I have mixed feelings as you can tell :cheerful:

Haha. I feel the same way. Part of me was like "aww poor dove" and the other part of me was like "that was awesome!"
Its the circle of life.

And it moves us all
Through despair and hope
Through faith and love
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the Circle
The Circle of Life

Just hoping my path travels on for a bit longer in the good old circle of life

life is eternal... you just shed this earhly vessel.

 

[j.w]

Yes but I'm not wanting to shed right yet. Bet everyone wonders what we will be like in our Heavenly bodies. I know I do. I think about lots of things to do w/ eternal life.

We spent Christmas in Tillamook OR. I took a bunch of nature photos while there

The first two are the Wilson river and the rest of the Pacific.

Oregon has some of the most beautiful beaches as it shows in your lovely photo's pecan. We camped and have bicycle ridden many times and just love it there :cheerful:

When I graduated from college, ms, jumped in my datsun station wagon and drove up highway 101. In Oregon and Washington would just drive until seeing a sign pointing to camping beach. Would pull over and stay for awhile. A neat trip, a month on the road, 7000 miles.
Oregon and Washington both had beautiful beaches, usually empty too.

Lots of beautiful beaches over on the Olympic Peninsula side of Washington. Nice huge rocks line the water. My daughter was born over in Forks,Wa. which is right near all these beautiful beaches. We visited them all the time. Dug clams, smelt fished and just enjoyed the beach :cheerful:
