Last week we got the storm of all snow storms. Over 3 feet of snow landed at my place from a single storm system during 2 1/2 days! Instantly we have a winter wonderland up here. Gave a whole new meaning to the saying “Well if it is going to be cold, we may as …
Dark eyed Junco at my feeder. Last week I complete two Master’s programs! I finished the requirements for my Master’s of Education (my official graduation ceremony is this weekend) and I completed the Master Naturalist course through the DNR. To view my research project on Photographic Literacy go to:www.photo-lit.com. Here is the second article in …
Great Grey Owl that came to visit my feeders this morning. This is the winter that never ends. So far in April we have received over 30 inches of snow! One one good result will be the spring run-off which hopefully will bring the level of Lake Superior up. Last weekend I gave my …

Well, I survived the holidays. We had a wonderful Christmas tree; a beautiful Douglas Fir that my daughter and I cut down from our property. I will hate to un-decorate it and haul it outside to the brush pile but all things must pass. Winter is settling in up north. So far this year we have …
We are in the midst of a good old fashioned Minnesota winter; so far we have had about 3 1/2 to 4 feet of snow and the mercury has been below zero most mornings. Lake Superior continues the slow process of freezing over. This winterwe may experience the unusual event of a completely frozen lake. The ice offers great …

We have worked with the Bloomington MN REI for almost 10 years offering a springtime photography workshop. …
OK, I will admit it; I am ready for spring. I am looking for those wonderful spring photographic opportunities where the foreground light is vibrant, crisp and clear, and the sky is dark and foreboding with the promise of a spring thunderstorm. I can’t wait to venture into the woods and get muddy laying on my belly to …
