A duckling finds its way
I want to tell you the story of a duckling I saw the other day. There was nothing particularly remarkable about it, but it was very cute. It was walking along a concrete structure with its parent, then wasn’t able to follow said parent into the water. It ran back and forth cheeping with increasing distress, before eventually finding its way into the lake to the cheers of the human onlookers.
And that’s just one of many animal encounters I’ve had in the last week alone - some with other humans about, some by myself.
A spring, a marsh, a dune, and many, many birds
A year ago today, I was in the Great Lakes area, travelling north beside Lake Michigan.
I wanted to share some experiences and photos from that day.
January 2023: The birds and the bees
I started 2023 with the goal of one photo post a month. But I’ve already discovered my favourite photos for January won’t fit in a single post. So today can be some of my favourite photos of the birds and the bees I’ve seen (and perhaps the odd butterfly).
I realise that perhaps this should have been posted on Valentine’s Day. But the post is definitely safe for work - well, to the extent sharp beaks and stingers are safe for work, anyway.
