Blanket

Owens Valley, California in 2011.  It was a great year for snow.  There was so much snow on the Eastern Sierras in April, the taxman couldn't collect on the 15th.

Tufa Tops

Below the tufa towers, Mono Lake has an unusually productive ecosystem based on brine shrimp that thrive in its waters, and provides critical nesting habitat for two million annual migratory birds that feed on the shrimp.

Watcher

Kutsavi, or alkali fly pupae, were a significant source of food for the native people of the Mono Basin. Each summer the Kutzadika'a people would harvest the alkali fly pupae from the shallow waters of Mono Lake. The pupae are rich in fat and protein necessary for the metamorphoses of the adult fly. High in calories, kutsavi was an excellent source of food that could be stored easily.

I didn't see any alkali fly pupae on this trip.  Of course, I wasn't really looking either.
