How rude!

August 12, 2022Hiking, MammalsJonathan

Side view of an American red squirrel, sitting on a tree branch, holding a half eaten pine cone in front of its mouth.

As I hiked along the trail, I heard a loud, scolding “chit-chit… chi-chit” in the tree above. How rude of me to interrupt this little guy’s lunch! Sorry, buddy. Just a few snaps, and I’ll let you eat in peace.

Back in the land of pines and lakes

July 31, 2022Camping, Hiking, Lakes, Landscape, TreesJonathan

Tall skinny pine trees grow from a bog at the edge of a lake, below a partly cloudy sky.

I spent last week on a camping vacation in northern Wisconsin. Wish I could’ve brought some of the fresh, pine scented air back home with me.

Railing toward sunset

July 27, 2022Landscape, Railroads, SkyJonathan

Railroad tracks leading off into the distance reflecting the late-day sun. In the background are trees, clouds in the sky, and the sun, which is low in the sky.

In a wild state

July 23, 2022Flowers, QuotesJonathan

A meadow of yellow wildflowers with dark brown heads.

“I should be glad if all the meadows on the earth were left in a wild state, if that were the consequence of men’s beginning to redeem themselves.”
   – Henry David Thoreau

A small yellow and brown bug sits on the middle of a yellow flower with a raised brown center.

An ambush bug waits patiently on a black-eyed Susan for a meal to drop by.
