Winter is when we get rain here in California, so even the plants that aren’t irrigated start growing green

Clouds flow over the snow-covered San Gabriel Mountains
Clouds flow over the snow-covered #SanGabrielMountains above #LosAngeles this morning. We've had a decent amount of rain this December, and snow in the mountains, leading to hopes for a wet winter and enough water to store for next summer.
Oh, and skiing for those who are into that sort of thing 😁

Jade plant (flowers with varying numbers of petals)
It’s an outdoor houseplant, but I’m posting here because I noticed that the flowers don’t all have the same number of petals: some have 4, some have 5, and some have 6, all on the same plant. Is this typical for jade, or unusual?
Twilight at the circular offices
Twilight at the circular offices. There are four of these round buildings arranged in an arc around a central, taller building that's out of view. The rock gardens and drought-tolerant planters used to be lawn and fountains until they redid the landscaping a couple of years ago.

A bright sundog next to a glass-sided building
A bright #sundog next to a glass-sided building. The sun is off to the left out of frame. The sundog had a bit more color and more of the spectrum in it as seen through my polarized sunglasses, so I kind of wish I'd taken a shot through one of the lenses, but at least you can see how bright it was.
I haven't adjusted the color on this image at all – except for cropping, it's straight out of my phone.

Brown Pelicans Passing Each Other
This and another pelican swam past each other. One started flapping its wings as they approached, and then stopped once they’d passed each other.
