Nice. That's a pretty nice mural to have on the side of such a simple store. Surprising.
Wow. The last one is really cool. Is the gull attempting to be an osprey? I've never seen a gull come tearing in for a landing like that. Neat.
Absolutely magnificent. When I was younger I owned a Norton 750 Ranger. Just as beautiful as these motors in your photo. Total love. Better than sex! I'm attaching a photo of the Norton.
No. Botanically "weed" is meaningless. How about "Wild Flower".
Don't know that it matters with such a great shot but, the name is actually Purple Gallinule. There, now you can sell it!
Wow! And looking straight at the camera! Beautiful.
Nice shot but the weather belies the fact that it rains 144" a year in Forks.
Nice tour of Alaska! The Glacier Bay shot is really special.
Eurasian Coot, I believe.
I suppose that guy lacks the discerning eye of the photographer he'd like to be. Beautiful animal.

Nice. They look like Snow Geese.
This is a female mallard. The males have the green hues on their heads.
