July Frogs 2012

These were taken in July.  The first 2 shots are bull frogs (i think) and the last 3 are Leopard Frogs.  I really like the green ones, they are fun to shoot but a little harder to find.

Snowy river 2011

These are from last year but I never got around to posting them.  It's the river by our cottage all snowy.  I haven't gotten out there yet this year.  So peaceful looking.

Random river scenes

Sorry for the delay in posts but I have been down while I do some computer upgrades. Which are still under way - I am on the installment plan.  :)  These are some random fall river scenes that I have had back logging.  It's has finally snowed in the northwoods so hopefully I will get out and get some new snows shots soon.

July Osprey Nest

This is the Osprey nest this past July.  Sorry I didn't post them sooner but I was back logging.  I think that is both adults that you see in the pictures.  I don't think you can see the babies yet.

Fall River

These are some shot of the river taken in October on a cold misty day.  It wasn't good on my camera but the shots turned out interesting.

Random Fall shots

 These are just some random shots I took this fall.

In North America, autumn is usually considered to start with the September equinox.[4] In traditional East Asian solar term, autumn starts on or around 8 August and ends on about 7 November. In Ireland, the autumn months according to the national meteorological service, Met Éireann, are September, October and November.

Northwoods Marsh

On a guided hike I was told that Marshes don't freeze in the winter and stay warm all year round. A marsh is a type of wetland that is dominated by herbaceous rather than woody plant species.[1] Marshes can often be found at the edges of lakes and streams, where they form a transition between the aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems.
