Loons on Monona Bay

April 9, 2022Birds, LakesJonathan

Side view of a common loon floating in the water.

Looking up at a pile of broken up lake ice, shaped like a mountain range, under a deep blue sky.

A strong (and cold!) wind brings the broken up ice on Lake Mendota to the shore.

Spring beginnings

March 20, 2022Flowers, Spring, ThoughtsJonathan

Close up of a snowdrop blossom surrounded by other blossoms.
