I have enjoyed nature and it's beauty for as long as I can remember. Photographing it to share is a new hobby. I still have much to learn. Any helpful hints and constructive criticism is always welcome.


I will try to post new items weekly so check back. It is my pleasure to share nature's gifts with you. I find myself amazed at some of the beauty I find while out for a walk.

I go to nature to be soothed and healed, and to have my senses put in order.

A Spicebush Swallowtail caterpiller. Normally they are a bright lime green color. They turn this yellow shade before they pupate. The "eye spots" on his back are his defense mechanism. He uses the disguise to look like a snake so the birds will not eat him.
