Coiled Corn Snake
We were walking out of the forest and to the parking lot, and this young corn snake turned to us and "stood up" to warn us he was dangerous. Corn snakes are not poisonous or dangerous.

One of my Very Best Reflection Photos!

Foxy! He Think We Can't See Him!
We ran across this young fox who was looking across to the other shore at something and then realized we were there. He ducked down and froze. We did the same and after about three minutes of 'Freeze tag,' he slinked away. Picture ONE Picture TWO Sign in to see full entry.

The Northern Lights At Christmas Michigan During the Perseids
This is another "honeymoon era" photo taken almost exactly two years ago. We were staying near Munising, but I knew there was a nice beach over a few miles just outside of Christmas, Michigan.
