Last weekend my father and I visited Horicon Marsh and National Wildlife Refuge where we went on an early evening, two-hour boat tour.
A few times we were fortunate to get some great views of birds close up, like this sandhill crane.

While I was eating lunch at the café today, trying not to let the dreary weather bring my mood down, I noticed water drops forming on the plants from all the mist in the air.
There’s nothing like a walk in the woods, even in winter.
Taken at the UW Arboretum today.
Yesterday I headed over to Vilas Park to hike around a bit. I wasn’t the only one taking advantage of winter recreation there.
In spite of the hassles that come with the record amounts of snow, it really was quite beautiful this morning. I decided to put on my hiking boots and get out there with my camera, before all the snow blew off the branches. Below is a shot looking east down Schroeder Road.
After a delicious (and very filling) Thanksgiving dinner, my father, sister, her friend Dennis, and I went for a short walk in the late afternoon sun.
I take a lot of nature photos. Sometimes I wonder if I concentrate on that kind of thing too much. To expand my repertoire a bit, I headed downtown late Sunday afternoon, to shoot some of the buildings.
