I got one too, wasn’t it beautiful? I ran outside in my pajamas. It was 21°. The moon was so low in the southern sky. I see from my moon app that it was 10° elevation. #moonphotography #okanogan

Thermometer showing 5° temp.
Snowy yard in the morning with meadow and hills in the background.
5° F this morning in the #Okanogan Highlands . Been a warm #winter so far in WA but now it’s returning to normal. But there’s only an inch of crispy snow!
Now the neighbor has turned off the noisemaker but the red breasted nuthatch is silent. #winter morning #birds of the #Okanogan highlands. Interestingly, Instagram filtered out the background noise more effectively than BlueSky. 🪶

#Wetlands #restoration brings the #beavers back to our creek in North Central Washington thanks to the efforts of the #Okanogan Highlands Alliance.
Grant money is less now so the beavers will have to finish the project. 🌎🌱🌲🦫

Landscape photo of mostly barren hills covered in dry grass. In a swale in the hills is a line of bare trees, with one spot of autumn yellow still visible. In the distance, wooded mountains appear dark and small under a metallic cloudy sky.
Grass, wind and space under chilly November sky

Landscape photograph of waning autumn aspens on grassy shrbby slopes. Most of the yellow aspens are in a thicket in the foreground above a small pond. To the right of the pond is another lone yellow tree, while a stand of bare aspens sits further off. The slopes appear to drop towards a lower valley at top right, past which can be seen darker wooded hillsides.

Landscape photograph of an autumn aspen grove, edging towards abstract but not quite there. The scene is densely textured with small bare branches, punctuated by several more prominent white aspen trunks, with golden leaves like a yellow mist at the top of the scene.
Aspen reverie, north-central Washington, about 10 days ago.

In 1992 our community was inspired by a spotted #frog to fight back against corporate #exploitation of our beautiful #Okanogan highlands. Now, again in 2025, the #frog has become a symbol for our #resistance .
A woman in a salmon colored shirt stands next to a red white and blue banner that reads Okanogan County Indivisible with liberty and justice for all.
Our #Okanogan County #Indivisible group got our new banner in time for our No Kings Rally in #Tonasket on October 18th. It will also be blessing our booth at the Okanogan Family Faire (Barter Faire).

Western larch turns golden in the fall as the setting sun enhances the glow.
Tamarack in fall colors reflect in the lake.
I’m surrounded by western larch or as we call it, Tamarack, & I did not know it was endangered. Many burn it for firewood. In a month or so it’s going to be turning golden across the hillsides. Forest service is still allowing almost clear cuts of large acreage of these trees in #Okanogan county.
