I’ll plant and water, sow and weed, Till not an inch of earth shows brown, And take a vow of each small seed To grow to greenness and renown: And then some day you’ll pass my way, See gold and crimson, bell and star, And catch my garden’s […]
On Sunday eve, September 27, 2015 there was a stunning lunar eclipse with a super moon. Last seen in 1982, this spectacular night event won’t occur again until 2033. Honestly, I had forgotten that this once-in-a-lifetime event was happening last night. The past week I’ve been overwhelmed with […]

Hi ! My name is Fred and I’m not like the other squirrels. In fact, I’m an endangered Delmarva Fox Squirrel. My cousins and I only number around 20,000 and live in the eastern shore of Maryland and Virginia. My favorite hangout spot is within the pine forests […]

Falling into the category of having too much time on my hands, those that have been following me know about my beautiful Red Tailed Fox that lives in the neighborhood. Try as I might, I just have not been able to get a gallery shot of him as […]
The sun rather confused me on Sanibel Island, Florida. Visiting in early December, the sun is rather south in the horizon. Due to the positioning of the island, one can see both sunrise and sunset at the same place. While the mornings are overcast, the clouds clear up […]
Who knew that crabs have spots? Found on Sanibel beach in Florida, this is a unique Calico Crab, also known as a leopard crab. But this isn’t the only strange thing found on the sand this morning. Odd looking jelly fish laid in the surf. Some pale, some […]
