For the last 3 weeks or so, I have been doing lots of walking, but since my little Toyota was on vacation in another city, my walks have been limited to places near my apartment. There isn’t much in the way of nature near my apartment, so I didn’t have anything to take photos of.… Continue reading Checking In at the Great Blue Heron Nature Reserve

When I was walking on the Vedder River Rotary Trail, I saw some signs about the Browne Creek Wetlands, so yesterday I decided to head back over there to see what I could find in the wetlands. I turned right and followed the trail for just a couple of dozen steps where the rotary trail… Continue reading Browne Creek Wetlands

A cloudy day is not the best day for photos, but it is a great day to walk – especially when the temperatures are in the low 20’s compared to the 30’s of a few days ago.

After breakfast yesterday I drove over to the Cedar Bog trail for a little longer walk than I had at Prairie Winds trail. The temperature was warmer for this walk than the earlier one. That ended this trail and tomorrow we will continue with my 3rd walk.

Yesterday morning I decided it was time to go back to Bunn’s Creek for my walk. It has been about a month since I’ve been there. My first sighting was a beautiful Belted Kindfisher. He was on the opposite side of the creek and he tested my camera’s zoom ability. Amazingly enough, I got a… Continue reading Bunn’s Creek in the Early Autumn

I was thinking it has been awhile since I’ve been to Fort Whyte Alive and looking back on my posts, I see it has been about 5 weeks. That IS a long time! But, it was a beautiful morning so that is where I went this morning.
