A Canoe From Home?

I thought I'd do something a little different on this Monday post. Back in 2015 my family went on summer vacation to the beach. We rented a house and headed down to the Pensacola area in June. The house we rented had a metal canoe sitting behind it. After looking at it the canoe was … Continue reading A Canoe From Home?

Chasing The Roseate Spoonbill – Walking (Part 7)

I am still trying to get a picture of a Roseate Spoonbill but as I’ve said it's hot! I thought it cooled off enough the other day to do some walking at Cane Creek State Park. I went to the East side of the lake and decided to walk where I've not been to before, … Continue reading Chasing The Roseate Spoonbill – Walking (Part 7)

Lake Monticello Again From The Air

A while back I posted a view of Lake Monticello from the air. My friend, Bennie Ryburn sent me some more pictures nearly a month ago he took while flying over the lake. I appreciate him sharing with me! Now I need to look at it from satellite again after the recent rain to see … Continue reading Lake Monticello Again From The Air

Arkansas Post

One of my favorite spots for photography is The Arkansas Post over on the Arkansas River. It is at "The Post" that I've gotten some of my favorite deer pictures and for this week's Muddy Water and Cypress Trees post I'll post some pictures from a ride around the Post (too many posts!) in 2011.

Chasing The Roseate Spoonbill – More Window Time (Part 6)

I am still trying to get a picture of a Roseate Spoonbill but as I've said it hot! I decided to do some more driving up around the Arkansas River on a Sunday afternoon. Here's some of my photos from that drive: I'll get out of the truck for next week's post and sweat some … Continue reading Chasing The Roseate Spoonbill – More Window Time (Part 6)

Storytime (Part 2): Turned Around

Which Way? Ever felt that way, where you don't know which way to go? I started this story a week before last but completely forgot to post part 2 last week with my griping on the heat last week! So let's continue... I did a little walking around the tails of Lake Monticello the other … Continue reading Storytime (Part 2): Turned Around

Wildflowers And Bees

For today's Muddy Water and Cypress Trees post I'll look back at some pictures from 2016. I drove out around Seven Devil's WMA just east of Monticello and took a few pictures of some wildflowers along the roadside and if I remember correctly found one of my favorite snacks, Wild Muscadines. These photos have become … Continue reading Wildflowers And Bees

Chasing The Roseate Spoonbill – Let’s Ride The Levee (Part 5)

I'm still trying to get a picture of the Roseate Spoonbill. Let' review a bit this journey. I saw one flying over a couple weeks ago but couldn't get a picture of it, since it's been on my list of wanting to see one up-close and get a photograph of it. It's been very hot … Continue reading Chasing The Roseate Spoonbill – Let’s Ride The Levee (Part 5)

It’s All Relative

I'll give a little peak here to a coming Chasing Roseate Spoonbill post. I went out yesterday to look for birds and since it's cooled off I decided to do some walking. I guess "cooled off" is relative since what it cooled off from! It was still hot! I'm thankful for the cooler breeze we … Continue reading It’s All Relative

The Kingfisher

For this week's Muddy Water and Cypress Trees post I'm going to look back on one of my older photographs of a Belted Kingfisher taken at Choctaw Island on the Mississippi River in 2011. (I can't believe it was that long ago.) Seeing a Kingfisher is not that rare as I've seen many but this … Continue reading The Kingfisher
