The Week In Seven Photos

It’s wonderful to close the door on January and the disappointing end to the football season without a Buffalo Bills vs. Detroit Lions Super Bowl. Luckily February will be filled with plenty of Oscar nominated movies, hockey and college basketball games to help me forget I’m waiting for Bryce Harper to hit a home run…

The Week In Seven Photos

After a week of winter storms and dangerously cold temperatures, it’s hard to imagine we just had waves on the lake last Friday. The swans are also trying to figure out how things could change so drastically after the mild beginning to winter while the little birds have adapted rapidly to the extra birdseed during…

Snow Day

It was actually a few snow hours and then a slush day and I’m now a believer in buying a snowman instead of making one (the chickadees agree). Did not take me long to have my first fall of the season, went out to fill the bird feeders and before I knew it I was…

Another red-winged blackbird bounced off my…

Thought I would share some of my favorite introvert moments from the week, beginning with a solitary great blue heron finding a lone branch within the very busy rookery.…

The Week In Seven Photos

Don’t really know why when the temperature goes from zero to sixty in a few days that it isn’t as exciting as flooring it after a green light in a fast hot rod, but trust me it really isn’t. Started the week with a freezing mini snow storm that had Harper looking to the sky…

The Week In Seven Photos

It was suppose to be a peaceful morning on the nature trails, but instead of those wonderful winter mornings of solitude just hanging out with the birds along the trails we were reminded that it’s that awful time in Michigan where everyone decides in March it’s time to leave their homes after a long winter…
