That is great to hear! Thank you for the feedback!

Really, Andrew, you are the best! Your morning posts make my entire day!

Thanks! This old thing? It’s a Fuji X-T4 with their 100-400 mm lens.

I enjoy your observations and photos! What kind of camera/lens do you use to get those wonderful shots?

This morning I saw three of your four birds and a Downy Woodpecker. I am so glad you got the…

Wow, what a shot capturing that Herring Gull with a fish it just plucked out of the water! Dad

Thanks for seeing/ thanks for sharing your wonderful photos!

So interesting to see how the blue heron “shape shifts”. And, catching the fish in midair – priceless photo!!

Oooooh, aaaaahhhhhhhh. Peaceful beauty.

It sure does. Luckily, it already had a fish, and it probably realized that I’m just too heavy for it…

Thoroughly enjoyed this. Wonderful stuff. Carolyn Bucior

The pic of the kingfisher is most impressive. It seemed he was posing for you. Tops any other pic on…

After the first sighting, on the water between the islands at the north end, I usually see it over the…

Hi Andrew, Apologize if you said it in one of your posts and I missed it. Mark and I were…

Yes, I haven’t seen that little cutie since October 1. Either someone come to collect it, undoing the misstep of…

Noticing that the little yellow duck no longer appears anywhere…. Any thoughts…. Sigh…..

Yes! It’s a thrill every time I get to see it.

The osprey: what a beautiful creature! — Carolyn W.

Could be, but my experience has been that it is super hard to identify mushrooms over the interwebs. These folks…

Just curious. That mushroom looks like a shiitake. Don’t know if they grow in Wisconsin wild without cultivation. Otherwise maybe…

Beautiful photos. Thank you.

The Buck is so grand.

Wow! What a nice picture of that buck!

Beautiful picture of the osprey, but my favorite is the red squirrel. Dad

Yes – I have almost all of these creatures on my blog – but, it took me about 5 different…

Believe me, I know! That was quite the special day, and it sure helps that Estabrook is so great.

That’s really lucky to see so much wildlife in one day!

Your photos make my day … EVERY day! and I don’t tell you so often enough.

Great and wonderful pictures. Thank you.

That deer crossing the road picture is wonderful! Carolyn Bucior

Great and lovely day, super pictures! Thank you!

I must have JUST missed you this morning as I too saw the Coopers hawk chase the king fisher! Needless…

They were falling like snow flakes in some parts. There was a little stream of them floating down the river…

Thumbs up to “frozen leaves” and “warming hawk”! Thumbs up to all of them…these were my favorites. Today, I stared…

Indeed, there’s something to be said for “normality” in this time of unpredictability. Though I’m not that fond of winter,…

Thank your for the odd duck!

No tricks here! Only November treats! Thanks Andrew!

Another amazing photo. I thought you had eagle eyes, but I guess you have osprey eyes. I hope Mother Nature…

The groupies (Lisa, Mike, Chris, me) were concerned about the break in emails and were just texting back and forth…
