This weekend I am speaking about birding and blogging at the Michigan Audubon's annual conference in Lansing. I will catch up with all of you on Sunday. Thank you for visiting!

Moo

Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are good is like expecting the bull not to charge because you are a vegetarian.

Sweeter Side

This Gray Squirrel was so ferocious this past weekend - chewing big holes on my new wooden bird feeder. When I went outside to shoo him away, he crawled up into the tree and immediately looked so sweet and vulnerable. Hmmm....well I guess I'll be getting a baffle for the new feeder, but I'll leave some peanuts on the ground nearby. I'm a softie.

Out into the wilderness

“In wilderness is the preservation of the world.”
