My Little Bare, ahhh, Bear!

We found this little guy (or gal... I didn't ask) wandering down a little side trail. There are a lot of bears up here, and this type of thing is not uncommon. Check it out! https://www.dropbox.com/s/y9rkrexb4dql9iz/bearontheroad.png?dl=0 Sign in to see full entry.

Eagle in the Evening

I just caught this shot of a big male on the edge of town, about a block from me, as I was coming back from getting burgers from McDonald's. It's getting dark fast here, but I caught this with my cell at about 80 feet away. Check it out! Sign in to see full entry.

This is a shot that I accidentally left the lens set at a low speed. It gives the scene a bit of a blur, but it also accented a few things. The colors are true to the original, but it allowed the vegetation to blur a bit as it moved with the breeze. Either way, this is a pretty shot in my eyes!... Sign in to see full entry.

Healthy Female Snowy Owl

The Snowy Owls are beginning to flood the area. It typically takes them several days to recover after that long flight from the Arctic Circle, but this one looks 'in fine feather.'

Ship In Hiding

Lake Superior has been pitching a fit the last few days, causing all of the big cargo ships to seek shelter in the shallows along the various bays. A friend of mine took this photo of an unnamed ship that tipped the tape at roughly 1100 feet long. It was hiding in the shelter of Eagle Harbor along... Sign in to see full entry.

A Mother, Father, and Daughter Reunion

While I can only be sure that the two females are related because I have seen them since the yearling doe on the right was a baby, I can't be sure that the six-point buck is its father. The deer herd is in great shape as the majesty of these animals is evident. It's mating season in Michigan, and... Sign in to see full entry.

Here, Porkie!

We were out in the forest walking earlier this summer when we ran into this guy.
