Today brings the final installment of my road trip to the central Oregon coast. This is another shot from a beach in Newport of some dog walkers and little dog… it just made me smile to see it.
Here’s an aerial view of the beach on Google Maps.
I’ve created a photoset at Flickr of my various [...]

Guest photographer Hugo sent in this lovely image of a… well, he’s not sure. His description:
I took this at my favorite park as the sun was setting. I’ve never been able to figure whether she’s a duck…or a goose. She has the characteristics of both. As best as I can figure, she’s a “Guck”, or [...]

My favorite cows who live along E. Washington St. were lazing about on the grass yesterday, so I stopped by to catch up on the latest bovine gossip. But they didn’t seem interested in chatting… they just decided to chill instead. I can respect that.

I stole these (okay, I have permission) off of guest photographer John Brandt’s Flickr photostream. I love this car, so I couldn’t pass up the opportunity. The photo at right shows more of the car itself. Click on it to see it larger.
I posted a photo of the back end of it back in 2007, [...]

I figured I should post a photo of something other than autumn leaves for at least one day this week, since there will be more of that come this weekend, and next week. There have been a lot of European garden spiders hanging around my yard lately (and elsewhere, I’m sure), so they seemed a [...]

I figured I wouldn’t have many chances left to take flower photos before autumn really sets in, so here are some cute little yellow daisies with a couple of flies on them. You know, in case you were looking at the photo and wondering what they heck it was of and needed a verbose description. [...]

My nephew got a new doberman puppy a couple of days ago, and I kinda felt the need to share. She’s absolutely adorable, and that much cute can’t be contained. I’m very close to just keeping her for myself, even though I have a full grown version already.
Sorry for the puppy indulgence. We resume your [...]

It’s been a while since I visited the cows who live on E. Jefferson St. So I stopped by yesterday and we visited. It was nice. They caught me up on all the latest bovine gossip, and I told them about the goings on in the human world.
But then the unthinkable happened: one of them [...]

I stopped by to pick up a basket of strawberries at a stand in the Ace Hardware parking lot yesterday, and this beautiful little creature was hanging out in the middle of everything. I think it’s a Lorquin Admiral, but I’ve been known to be wrong. I think I might actually be right about this [...]

Today is the 3rd Anniversary of Stayton Daily Photo! I had planned on photographing something appropriate to the occasion, but then I kind of forgot. So instead here’s a stuffed eagle toy I found at Postal Connections on Shaff Rd. He’s cute.
I want to thank everyone who’s happened by this blog, for whatever reason. Each [...]

This little guy/girl decided to stop and pose for me at Pioneer Park a couple of days ago. I’ve decided to name him or her Sam. Sam the Squirrel.

I heard this bird before I saw him (or her, but let’s assume it’s a male). That makes sense, since he’s a woodpecker. I’ve never seen one in person before, so it was kinda spiffy to find him at Pioneer Park.
Sorry the photo’s kind of blurry — he wouldn’t let me get very close, so [...]

Today’s photo is another from the little duck pond in a manufactured home park off of Fern Ridge Rd. I like ducks. The joke here in Oregon is we’re all web-footed because we get a fair amount of rain (one of the Oregon college teams is even called the Ducks), so maybe I feel ducks [...]

I went to my favorite duck pond yesterday in a manufactured home park off of Fern Ridge Rd. yesterday. It had been almost two years since I’d last been there. It was good to see the little duckies again.

Guest photographer Hugo sent today’s absolutely beautiful photo. Here’s his description:
This was taken in the early morning hours at Walter L. Wirth Lake in Cascades Gateway Park in Salem. I really liked how the trees faded into the fog, in the background. I spend so much time at the lake that the ducks and geese [...]
