“Oohed and Aahed”

I invited my neighbor to photograph the fawns in my neighborhood. There are 11! What an amazing sight!

We an oohed and aahed at the many beautiful sites before us, one of which was a mom nursing her twins right beside the road.

Even though they are beginning to lose their spots, they are magnificent creatures.

I have two raised beds full of milkweed. I discovered a lot of eggs and a few caterpillars recently. Right now, I have 18 monarch caterpillars. I am so excited!

Clouds enamor me! This tree is one of my favorites to photograph in Cades Cove. Add a little fog and clouds, and shebang.

“Steppingstone”
Judy Royal Glenn Photography

This photo was taken April 13, 2026, as I was in search of spring cubs. A mom and her babies were walking along Hyatt Lane when the mom decided to tree the cubs in a beautiful dogwood.

One cub looks like he’s using his sibling as a steppingstone.

In Cade’s Cove yesterday, I stood across the Loop Road from a momma bear and her tiny one trouncing through a field. While taking a video of her, momma bear stood erect. I enjoyed hearing a lady get excited by the awesome sight.

“Nehemiah”

While at the Blue Ridge Mountains Christian Writers Conference, my friends and I found a cute chipmunk eating seeds. We named him Nehemiah.

May you see the Lord in His creation today.

“For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God.” Romans 1:20

“Happy Mother’s Day”
Judy Royal Glenn Photography

My favorite thing in the world to photograph is black bear cubs. They are so adorable!

Mother’s Day is Sunday, so I wanted to share this video. Mama bear is on the lookout 24/7 for her babies. The babies sometimes are unaware of danger, but Mama uses her senses to alert her of danger.

My mamma is in Heaven as she asked Jesus to be her Lord and Savior. She passed away in 2004. Jesus was an integral part of her life.

Do you know Him?

“This I declare about the LORD: He alone is my refuge, my place of safety; he is my God, and I trust him.” Psalm 91:2

“Mayhem”
Judy Royal Glenn Photography

Yesterday was a first for me in the Cove. We had a horse/bear jam. A mom and three spring cubs were on one side of Loop Road, and on the other side was a mama and her yearlings. Everyone was roaring at the accomplishments of the cubs as they climbed the tree—the visitors could be heard a mile away.

Next thing we know, the stable horses let loose and stormed Hyatt Lane. It was amazing and hysterical at the same time.

Instead of corraling the horses, everyone was corralled on Daffodil Hill to help the situation.

The bears didn’t know what to do. The mama and yearlings ran into the woods. The mama with the babies was on alert.

I tried to convince one horse that he wasn’t supposed to be on the Loop Road. He didn’t listen. He then climbed Daffodil Hill and joined the visitors.

The lead horse led the horses through the field one by one. The party was over, and soon after, a stable hand helped them back to the barn.

Sorry if you were in the horse/bear jam. The volunteer was doing an excellent job. She said, “No one got bitten or hurt.”

It was a wonderful day. I don’t think it will ever be repeated!

“Blessings Upon Blessings”

Monday was a spectacular day in Cades Cove. The bears were plentiful. I even lost track of how many I saw.

To top it off, I was there with some good friends. One friend was a guy who originally told me about Cades Cove many moons ago when I was living in Georgia.

I was photographing with this friend one day, and he asked me if I had ever been to Cades Cove.

I said, “Cades Cove?”

He said, “You’ve never been to Cades Cove?”

I had never heard of it. I am indebted to him for telling me about the Cove. It is truly Heaven on earth:)
