Micro.blog is doing a photo challenge for August. The word for today is “up” (suggested by @LJPUK). Today I trimmed a bunch of branches; here I’m looking up at a sagging branch of the big tree by the chicken coops. 📷 #mbaug

The Micro.blog photo challenge word for day 2 is “floating” (suggested by @RossA). Of course I’ll do a picture of ducks for this; floating ducks colliding while going after floating mealworm treats. 📷🦆 #mbaug

The Micro.blog photo challenge word for day 3 is “bug” (suggested by CTD). We welcome spiders to catch unwanted bugs; this one has built her web on our deck, safely out of our way. 🕷🕸📷 #mbaug

The Micro.blog photo challenge word for day 4 is “peace” (suggested by me!). Enjoying a moment of peace and tranquility in the quiet of the evening, watching the sunset. 📷🌅 #mbaug

The Micro.blog photo challenge word for day 8 is “view” (suggested by @Florentin). I enjoy the view of Mount Hood when flying my drone above my homestead; unfortunately it is obscured by trees and hills at ground level. 📷 #mbaug

The Micro.blog photo challenge word for day 9 is “black-and-white” (suggested by @Gabz). Here’s a black-and-white (or really grayscale) night cam shot of Porcini outside the feral cat house early this morning. 📷 #mbaug
