It is not everyday that you have your camera ready to go when you spot a mama racoon up in a tree with her babies. When I went to start shooting I realized my battery was dead. 🤣 Just my luck! I wasn't far from home so I ran back to get my camera fully expecting them to be gone when Igot back. It was my lucky day...they were still there! It was a good day!

Happy Saturday!

You miss every shot you don't take. You also miss every shot if you don't have your camera! Luckily I had my camera (and 600mm lens) when this loon popped up right in front of me!

Sometimes you need to sit out in a light mist to catch the birds as they bounce through the yard.

Spring is here and the blooming trees offer food sources for so many bird species including this Oriole enjoying the apple blossoms!

"There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature – the assurance that dawn comes after night, and spring after the winter." – Rachel Carson

The elusive wood duck ~ I have been trying to get a decent photograph of a wood duck for years! I know some spots where they hang out but I never seem to be in the right place at the right time. Until today! It was the perfect way to start Mother's Day!

Beach vibes~ I was lucky enough to have the beach to myself. It wasn't the warmest spring day but it was still perfect and a great spot to enjoy the sound of the waves and the smell of the salty air. I feel like Mother Nature provided the perfect picture for me to capture.

Spring is here and so are the bees! A single bee can visit several thousand flowers per day. Plant more flowers! 😉
