The White Dove of the Desert sand I really love the juicy

I really love the juicy rich warms in the legs and the crown and waddle and of course the stark contrast between blown out highlights and feathers

Sauvie  Island is a magical place and one of the most beautiful here in the Portland Oregon area

a very small one due to the storm:)

I'm told a dragonfly only extends it's wings while sleeping so it's ready in an instant to take off

If you ever have a chance to visit I hope you get to see this amazing place and all the wonders that set sail from there
