  • "There's gold in them thar hills!" When you think of gold in the mountains of the Pacific Northwest, no one is thinking of the metal that drove thousands of thrill seekers and would-be millionaires into the mountains of the Pacific Northwest, they are thinking of the absolutely wonderful and delicious Pacific golden chanterelle. Extremely important commercially, this wonderful culinary treat is found from southern Alaska to Central California and is hard to miss in the damp forests in the cooler months, where they tend to be found in profusion. These were found on a wet, cold October afternoon, deep in the forested mountains of rural Pierce County in Western Washington.

  • Relatively common across the United States, Southern Canada and Northeastern Mexico, the bold jumping spider is easy to recognize. It is large for a jumping spider, is usually black and white (some of them have orange or red spots), but the most striking characteristic is the metallic green chelicerae (part above the fangs). This one was found actively hunting on a prickly pear cactus near Weslaco, Texas on a very hot summer afternoon.

  • An immature male northern shoveler spreads his wings on a small pond in Medina, WA on a chilly spring late afternoon. It's darkening head will soon be a brilliant metallic green, much like the common mallard, but its long bill will remain black.

  • The flowers of the copper ladies'-tresses have the most unusual metallic sheen, something I've never seen in my life. These tiny flowers are about 4-5 millimeters wide, and macro photography was needed here with a ring flash.
