And All The Heads Turned

Helianthus tuberosus, Pittsburgh, PA, 2019

The wild sunflowers are at peak, and all of their heads turn toward the morning sun.  I found these on a walk in the woods.  There was a break in the dense forest canopy and then a riot of undergrowth.

The Fox And A Tryptych



Evidently, proof of life for the ever elusive beach fox.

The Beach

Blue Crab, Broadkill Beach, DE 2019


We've returned from our beach vacation, where I spent 2.5 days enjoying the sand and surf, and the rest of the time on the couch with a fever and infected sinuses.  Fortunately my wife called our doctor back in Pittsburgh and got her to phone in a course of antibiotics at a Rite Aid pharmacy near us.  Later, my wife got the same cold, but without the fever, still all of the phlegm.
Honestly, just glad it's over and we're home.

Cicada Wings

Cicada Wings, Etc., Pittsburgh, 2019

I was at my mother's condo and on the walkway there were dozens of cicada wings, without any cicadas in sight.  It was raining so I only picked up a few.
