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 Day at Starved Rock

A brilliant sunrise  before the storm.
A white-breasted nuthatch filling up on food before the snow begins.

The eagles have returned to Starved Rock.  We seen a dozen of them perched along the dam.  I think it's going to be a good year for eagle watching.

An adult takes off in search of fish at the dam.
He caught one and was enjoying his catch.

The snow has begun.  This little house finch is hiding out in a cedar tree.
