Honey bees are apparently feeding on bird seed dust. Never seen this behavior before. More photos on Flickr.

On today’s walk, there was a very photogenic & easy-going Black Phoebe. This one did not want to leave their tree.

My favorite person made cinnamon rolls today for tomorrow morning and another weekend (raw rolls apparently freeze well).

In the great valley of California, one learns to appreciate winter clouds after summer’s constant blue or smokey sky.

A very frosty morning today. My weather station read a low of 29°F just after midnight.

I planted two Asian pear trees today. A New Century (1st photo) and a Hosui (2nd photo). They’re from Stark Bro’s. These may be the last fruit trees I ever plant.

We’re ending the year with disco fries. Everyone, have a good start to 2022.

One more photo of today’s aebleskiver making.

Aebleskiver day!

After a few years of iPhone night mode, high ISO photography (as high as 12800) with my X100V is pretty nice. I really can’t be bothered by the noise since the X100V results in most circumstances look way better than blotchy iPhone night mode.
