Domaine Serene Evenstad Reserve Pinot Noir 2021, Willamette Valley, Oregon Ruby in color with medium intensity and a wide reddish rim. Fresh red berries on the nose and medium in body with medium acidity. Dry on the palate with nice complexity. Showing fresh cherries, sweet raspberries, light wood, tobacco, black pepper, chocolates, spices, light earth and herbs. Tangy finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries. This young Pinot Noir from Oregon is starting to drink nicely now, and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly. Rich and fruity, smooth and spicy. Nicely balanced and complex, soft and elegant. I've had a few vintages of this Pinot Noir and it is so much better with age. Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years. Wine Enthusiasts 93 points. Robert Parker 93 points. Wine Spectator 92 points. A good quality wine. Good right out of the bottle, and better with some airtime. Interesting, easy drinking and a good sipping wine. Pinot Noir grapes were aged in (55% new) French oak barrels for 16 months. 14.1% alcohol by volume. 91 points. $95.

Like Rob, I also have a Nuthatch for the #BirdoftheDay theme of #BlackHeads; in this case, a White-breasted Nuthatch! Seen here in a characteristic pose on the side of a tree. #Nature #Photography #Birds #PNWBirding #WillametteValley #Oregon

For Alan's theme of #Warblers for the #BirdoftheDay, here's an Orange-crowned Warbler I saw the other day. They're more understated than many of their relatives, but this one looked so good among the blossoms of a Bigleaf Maple. #Nature #Photography #Birds #PNWBirding #WillametteValley #Oregon

Darn allergies and runny nose 😭
That said, his dr said I am doing everything perfectly in regards to treatment. She commiserated with him about chapped lips and thought the Vasaline barrier was a great move on my part, lol. bless

For the #BirdoftheDay theme of #SmallBirdsinFlight, here's a Black Tern. These beauties have a small nesting colony in a marsh south of me, and I try to make it there a few times a year, at least once when the Terns are around! #Nature #Photography #Birds #PNWBirding #WillametteValley #Oregon

Adelsheim Vineyard Boulder Bluff Vineyard Pinot Noir 2019, Chehalem Mountains, Oregon Reddish/ purplish in color with light intensity. Soft on the nose and medium in body with medium acidity. Dry on the palate with nice complexity. Showing red currants, cherries, earth, black coffee, light oak, spices, herbs and black tea. Medium plus on the finish with soft tannins and tangy raspberries. This is a very tasty Pinot Noir from Oregon. Elegant and nicely balanced with a soft mouthfeel. This Single Vineyard Pinot Noir is complex, spicy and entertaining. Wine Enthusiasts 92 points. Wine Spectator 88 points. Still young and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly, and will continue to age nicely in the next 7 to 10 years. A little longer for this Magnum. Good by itself as a sipping wine. 100% Pinot Noir grapes were grown on volcanic soils from 25 year old vines. Drunk from a Magnum. 13% alcohol by volume. 91 points. $85 (750ml).

Drove from the mid #WillametteValley to the #BayArea yesterday. We made pretty good time! Surprised at how hot it is this week out here.

Benza Vineyards Three Tuxedos Reserve Pinot Noir 2022, Willamette Valley, Oregon Ruby in color with a wide reddish rim. Beautiful nose of fresh red fruits with light wood, dark chocolates, Indian spices, light earth and herbs. Medium plus in body with medium acidity. Dry on the palate with sweet cherries, plums, red currants, earth, light wood, spices, coffee, herbs and peppercorn. Medium plus on the finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries. This young Pinot Noir from Laureleood district in Oregon is starting to drink very nicely. Fruity and juicy. Complex and rich. Good right out of the bottle, and better after 30 minutes of airtime, when more complexity comes in and brings more structure to the wine. Easy drinking and very inviting. Tangy and interesting. Nicely balanced with a spicy mouthfeel. 100% Pinot Noir grapes were aged in (45% new) French Oak barrels for 16 months. 13.6% alcohol by volume. 91 points. $70.

This Turkey Vulture posed so nicely for me while sunning itself on top of a snag. Seen on my walk through the local park yesterday. These birds migrate, and are one of the early, obvious signs of Spring returning. #Nature #Photography #Birds #PNWBirding #WillametteValley

It's #WoodpeckerWednesday! Here's a very accommodating Hairy Woodpecker from last week. One of two very similar species (Downy is the other) found across the US, the Hairy WP can be determined by larger size and noticeably larger bill. #Nature #Photography #Birds #PNWBirding #WillametteValley

A perfect, deep red Camellia blossom. Pretty much the earliest flowers to bloom around the #WillametteValley, and so while not a native plant they do provide a nice early food source for bees and hummingbirds. #Photography #bloomscrolling

More recent bird pics... Spring is springing here, and while we haven't had many migrants show up yet, our wintering birds sure are getting lively... case in point, this Golden-crowned Kinglet that showed nicely! #Nature #Photography #Birds #PNWBirding #WillametteValley #Oregon

Found this Red-tailed Hawk perched on a roof at Ankeny National Wildlife Refuge on Wednesday. I sure wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of that beak! #Nature #Photography #Birds #PNWBirding #WillametteValley #Oregon
