It was another amazing day in Belize, and things got off to a great start when I strolled around the hotel grounds before breakfast. I spotted this little bird, which I have never seen before, in a small tree, and my camera was having a dickens of a time focusing in the low, early-morning light,Continue reading “Belize really ups its game!”

Having a great time in Belize…
Anne and I arrived at the fabulous Cahal Pech Village Resort in San Ignacio on the west edge of Belize around mid-afternoon today, with a special thanks to my niece, Liz, who picked us up at 4:10am to bring us to the airport. I was thrilled to find plenty of critters out and about atContinue reading “Having a great time in Belize…”
A toast!
My nephew and his betrothed were successfully married yesterday afternoon, yay, so I didn’t really get out to look for wildlife until this afternoon. I have had some luck with mid-day walks lately, but let us say that today I had just enough luck. The only picture I managed to capture was of this darlingContinue reading “A toast!”
“Anita! What them boys up to…”
My sister didn’t have to work today, and she was willing to join me this morning, so we headed first to the Broad Brook Reservoir, were we’ve seen great sights before. The sky was clear, the air was still, and the temps were in the 30s, so the steam fog coming off the surface wasContinue reading ““Anita! What them boys up to…””
A fine “welcome back” to the Nutmeg State…
Anne and I arrived safely in Connecticut last evening, but I didn’t have a chance to go out looking for wildlife until after lunch today. I didn’t expect to see much that late in the day, so I was quite pleasantly surprised when the critters put on a nice mid-day show. Here’s a trio ofContinue reading “A fine “welcome back” to the Nutmeg State…”
Fish is on the menu…
Welp, it’s Thursday, boys and girls, and you know what that means. Yup, it’s time again for Anne to take me on another fabulous adventure, so I won’t make it to Estabrook Park this morning. Instead, let me show you a few pictures from the last couple of days that didn’t make the first cut.Continue reading “Fish is on the menu…”
Autumn really starts to settle in…
It was cold, windy, cloudy, and even sprinkley this morning in Estabrook Park, so a classic autumn day in southeast Wisconsin. There were still a few sights to see, despite the weather, but I didn’t see a picture I could take until I was beside the river at the north end. That’s when the doeContinue reading “Autumn really starts to settle in…”
The internet is back, and so is the sun…
It was a little warmer and a little breezier this morning than yesterday in Estabrook, so there was no frost on the grass this time. The sky was just as clear, though, so it made for some pretty pictures, and the issue that kept websites from working yesterday appears to have been resolved, so IContinue reading “The internet is back, and so is the sun…”
First Frost!
Sorry this is so late, but there was an issue with certain websites on the internet today, which you may have heard about, that prevented me from uploading any pictures earlier today. Anyway, it was a very nice, if chilly morning, in Estabrook Park for our weekly wildlife walk. The temperature was 40°F at sunrise,Continue reading “First Frost!”
It’s finally starting to feel like fall…
Since it was raining pretty good when the sun came up this morning, and the big green blob on the radar was forecast to take its sweet time drifting out of the area, I took the morning off to run some errands. At around 10:30, I noticed that it was starting to look dry-ish outside,Continue reading “It’s finally starting to feel like fall…”
