  • Burr, It’s Hot

    Comlara Park, IL, August 2026 Kate finally found something that her iPhone could not take a decent picture of. It was the small white flower in the previous post. The R7 did an okay job, but it was just using the 55-250 mm lens, which is not the right choice. Despite being 85+ degrees and…

  • Lakeview Nature Trail at Comlara Park

    Comlara Park, IL, August 2026 Like so many other park trails with Lakeview in the name, it does not have much of a lake view. You can see the lake at the trail head, but you quickly move away from it. Oddly, the Mountain bike trail that spurs off of the lake view trail has…

  • Bon Secour Beach

    River Delta Marina, AL, March 2026 Kate saw it last year. We both saw it this year. Alabama has Alligators too. When we stopped at the marina, it was hiding from the Paparazzi at the end of the pond. They certainly blend in well. Kate lost track of him and could not find him again.…

  • Davis Bayou Area Part 2

    Gulf Islands National Seashore, MS, March 2026 Since I missed adding my selfies before the first David Bayou Area post went up, I decided another post needed to be added.
