#Meanwhile: The ants go marching... with larvae 
Millions of female worker ants carry the queen's larvae through a vast, treacherous landscape (known to us as 'the garden'). Watch them go...
A Dark-eyed junco finds some eats amongst the grass & moss in the late-afternoon sun.
A robin alerts its kin of danger from a lichen-laden perch.
Morning pearls of dew are beaded onto threads of moss
A sparkling chalice awaits a thirsty faery
A lupine contact juggler balances its ball with care
A thirsty rufous hummer (Selasphorus rufus) returns from her long-distance journey.
A fuzzy hoverfly (Criorhina nigripes) prepares for a busy day of pollinating.
A slopeside satin flower (Olsynium douglasii) heralds the return of spring.
A sweat bee (Lasioglossum?) eagerly gathers pollen from the anthers of a camas flower.
A conga line of colourful crossbills (Loxia curvirostra) descend upon our bird bath.
A banana slug takes its time munching on an early morning meal: a discarded weed.
