So we always wanted it, occasionally friends would bring some back from trips to CO or elsewhere it was available. npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…prl4 I don’t follow many big accounts either, other than some news people and I think one or two politicians, tend to avoid accounts that follow very few but have tons of followers. Just ‘cause I’m wary of what they’re preaching/selling. npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…prl4 Could you have just blocked the bridgy account? Not criticizing but wouldn’t that be an option? What I did. npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…s67t I think that’s probably true, but also Trump actually admires nationalistic thuggery and wants to be just like Pooty. Also, he hates Zelensky. npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…s67t Just disgusting what our lying, corrupt dictator is trying to do. 🖕🏼 him. npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…rl4d @nprofile…h4mp Read the story, the biologist has a hypothesis on that. npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…vgqe Do you have javalina there? That would be my guess. Seems too long for a coyote skull and the canines are wrong. npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…s67t That’s awesome. What variety of grape? npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…s67t Where do you get the grapes? Or do you grow them? npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston On our return from a successful fishing campout, grandson and I hiked the Lake Lenore Caves. They’re spectacular and compelling, served as shelter to hunting parties of the Sinkiuse and perhaps earlier cultures, created by ancient basaltic lava flows and then epic Ice Age floods. #Hiking #AltText npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston Messy pile of monster driftwood serves as a dry crossing of a creek on the Olympic Coast, for #ThickTrunkTuesday #Hiking #AltText npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…wuyc It could be a young tom, it’s difficult for them to find their own territory, the older toms push them into marginal habitat and they’re often the ones that get into trouble around civilization. I worked a few times with a Washington state wildlife biologist who specialized in cougars, that’s what he would say, “probably a young tom.” npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston Saturday morning beaver frolics, these two are wrasslin, splashin, rollin and tumblin, creating quite a ruckus.

Therefore I give you this trippy turquoise specimen for #SaturFrog. It the subject of a rare genetic condition known as axanthism, it lacks the ability to produce yellow pigmentation.

Sometimes I dont want to talk and need some social distance. She has been diagnosed as autistic, I never was. npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…aqq5 I’ll ask my friend @nprofile…9nlx. Tanya? 🙂 npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…3z5d Gemacht.

Yesterday though in the middle of the day a pack of coyotes in the nearby woods set off howling like crazy for several minutes. Sounded like a dozen or more. We haven't seen them lately but assuming a family with pups. npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston #SilentSunday npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…sh24 Hovenweep? npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston We jammin’!

Spotted the first PNW native western pond turtle I've ever seen, classified by Washington state as a species at risk. It is the subject of a reintroduction project and apparently it's working. All I've seen here before are several introduced turtle species. Did send pics to state fish and wildlife. Also saw on the morning ramble another native that I see often, a blacktailed deer, in the marsh grass. #Hiking #AltText . npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…ysde Shit is about to get real. npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…79d7 such a fabulous park, definitely one of the jewels of Seattle’s parks. npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…rrhg Reminds me of the various reconstructions of Cheddar Man, which I looked up last night after eating English cheddar cheese. It always makes me think of Cheddar Man. 😅 npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…eeal Nice! I’ve never been up there. Was close once, there are a couple nice lake hikes a bit beyond Spada, maybe the Grieder Lakes? Was hoping for an early season backpack but it was too early for those trails so did Lake Dorothy. npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…eqw3 5-2 and a mile high 🙏🏻 npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston #SilentSunday npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…xzjz It's hard to hear that, my 1st sergeant son just shipped out to Korea for nine months, his wife and two daughters bawling their eyes out. He's served in Afghanistan and two other "'stans," as he says, Thailand, Philippines, Germany, Kuwait, twice before in Korea. So far he hasn't suffered what Summer's pal has, but it each time he leaves it doesn't get easier for family, it gets harder. Meantime the fascist in charge calls soldiers and vets "suckers" and "losers." Makes me so mad. npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…xzjz Sounds line your raised an amazing human being, all the effort she puts in, dahlia expert, protesting regularly on the street. 🙏🏻 npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…ufmf Good song, reminds me of growing up in the Great Northwet. npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston Everything’s abloom in the PNW right now and although I suck at macro photography, lately I make a (feeble) effort. Mainly because the stinkin’ migrating tweeties refuse to sit still. So here are great camas (extremely important to indigenous people), Pacific ninebark and western trumpet honeysuckle, all NW native species spotted on the morning ramble. #Bloomscrolling #Hiking #GetOutside #AltText npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…79d7 I’ve got some tomatoes, cukes and zukes indoors under lights but they won’t go out right away, the tomatoes not until June. I do have some beans in the garden that I started indoors and lots of onions, plus the garlic I planted last fall.

Had a front mud room with windows, great for our house plants. Almost four years there, while working my first newspaper job. Drove by today, time changes everything. npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…xzjz I throw all my old towels in with my fishing and clamming gear. You can't have too many old towels when you're fishing or clamming. npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston Can't help myself, when a beaver presents an angle I shoot the pic. And they did on the morning bimble through our local park on the bay. Believe the one swimming by the grass is the monster we call the King #Beaver, rarely seen. It never came out for a positive ID, we think it might weigh 50 pounds. #Hiking #Walking #GetOutside npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…79d7 Noticed today my wife's bleeding heart in in the flower bed is up and blooming. npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston Another baby for J pod, the second born to the resident pod this year. npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston #SilentSunday npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston Could be a big breakthrough in helping restore coho -- which once numbered in the millions in Puget Sound waterways -- by filtering toxic tire dust that kills them in smaller streams. npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston @nprofile…h460 I did couple days ago! npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston Quick hike at Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs, jammed with spring break crowds and one major loop closed for work, but got in some steps, got some photos. #Hiking #Walking #Geology npub1xr0hmnjm6sdf5h7mcwdnekqgzcpy8fz43mw84zetsqlspytjm59slwgaev Greg Johnston Hiked Paine Mines Park east of Colorado Springs with son and fam, busy due to spring break but quite interesting.
