Holy Chipmunks, Batman

public.jpeg

I have made many attempts to capture a photo of a chipmunk for a long time. They never stay in one place long enough for a photo. I was shocked when this little guy ignored me ... I guess it was the love of food. There was several of them, and they were in the bird feeders having a feast.

The video below covers some of what we saw on our hike at Glen Helen Nature Preserve. Enjoy!

Blue Hunter

I captured this photo of this Great Blue Heron while hiking the Miami River Bike Trail. We were walking across the Robert J Shook Bridge, just south of the Farrington Reserve when we spotted her. She was so stealthy that I almost missed the shot.

Frankly, I am not sure if this was a male or a female. You really can’t tell the difference, at least I can’t. This is really close to where I believe there is a nest. I’m still trying to locate it.

Flowers by Mother Nature

I wanted to share some of the flowers and foliage that we have seen this past few weeks. I love the colors that nature provides. If you take the time to observe, the colors will amaze you!

Finch Sitting

Teresa and I were on our way home from a hike when we spotted these four American Finches setting on a fence. Notice this is a double date, two males and two females.

A Snake in the Grass

We just about stepped on this little guy. I think this is the first photo I have shared of a snake.
