"This is the violet hour, the hour of hush and wonder, when the affectations glow and valor is reborn, when the shadows deepen along the edge of the forest and we believe that, if we watch carefully, at any moment we may see the unicorn."

Friday Potpourri

A few of the sights I have encountered during my SF Walks....  (ooh...this was taken on a *rare* sunny day weeks ago..)





Seagulls *relaxing* atop their *Chosen House*!
*Embiggen please..."



A photo from the Palace of Fine Arts......more to come soon...

And last...  from two days ago (in fog, of course)...this amazingly beautiful Blue Heron!



Isn't he GORGEOUS!

Love,

♥ Robin ♥

  12. i love the hearts - but even more the seagulls on top of the building - that one has his wings outstretched and is ready to take flight!

    and mr blue heron is quite the handsome dude strutting about.....

  13. so glad you had a tiny bit of sun at least, i wish it were more. the fog has been almost as frequent here too, it has to be the seriously overheated inland...
    san francisco does look so lovely in your photos though (in the fog) and i would love to have taken that walk with you. hello gulls and heron!

    that is an amazing heart!

  15. I just came from Lolo's blog with a heron painting and my post-before-last had a picture I took of both a Great Blue Heron and a Green Heron - what great synchronicity!
