What are you grateful for? We think our local scenery is one of our best features. Breathe in the calm of this stellar view over beautiful Clear Lake from the vantage point of Featherbed Railroad BnB in Upper Lake. What a glorious way to kick off this Thanksgiving holiday week!

If ladybugs signify good fortune, then the local photographer who captured this phenomenon on a recent hike is lucky indeed! In winter months from November to February, thousands, even tens of thousands of ladybugs, can be found congregating in huge clumps on tree trunks and logs. This spectacular insect gathering is called an aggregation. Scientists believe ladybugs, who are usually solitary, aggregate to regulate their internal body temperatures, share mates, enhance their defense, and share resources. This incredible aggregation was captured by Jeff Keller while hiking recently on a local trail that enters the Mendocino National Forest. Just one more amazing example of Mother Nature in Lake County!

Have you heard of Lake County diamonds? These glistening stones are actually pieces of volcanic glass with an enchanting story based on local Native Pomo legend.
According to folklore, the Moon was captivated by the Pomo Indian chieftain and could not help but fall in love. Unfortunately, the moon could not stay with the chieftain because she had the responsibility of lighting up the sky at night and marking the seasons. The Moon was so heartbroken to leave her chieftain that she wept and wept. Her tears solidified and became known as “Moon Tears”, or Lake County Diamonds. These treasures can still be found today scattered through our local hills. Just another reason we’re known as a “hidden gem” among destinations!
