The theme for the WPC this week is partners: “subjects that are in tune with one another.”
One of the fun things about my visits to my aunt’s place just outside of Ellensburg is driving the surrounding country roads and looking at animals not seen in backyards here in Seattle. This pair of beef cattle seemed perfectly content together on an early August morning.
The topic for Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge this week is fountains. I love fountains, and have ever since I was a little tyke. Maybe it’s because I’m an Aquarius.
Unfortunately, I haven’t been around them much at all in recent years. Since starting this blog I’ve only seen four. Two were turned off and one was in terrible light at the time.
This fountain is in the center of the Woodland Park Rose Garden. While not very fancy, it does add quite a bit to the garden ambience.
The spotted towhee is one of our more unusual looking tree-dwellers. They have red eyes, kinda stubby looking wings on an often chubby looking body with white chest and rufous sides, and white spots. They are year-round residents in the Puget Sound region.
