Getting Ready for Fall Bird Migration
Earlier in the spring I found myself searching endlessly for things like “how do you find wildlife in the Chicago area?” or “Is there any wildlife in the Midwest?” or even “how far from Chicago do you have to drive to find good wildlife?” Clearly, I was rage-searching because of a long winter without getting out and taking pictures of anything. But, I came across a few articles that explained that Chicago is right in the middle of one of the largest avian migration corridors in the United States. Every year millions of birds of all types fly through here and - to my surprise - people from outside Chicago actually come here for the migrations!

Summertime in the Garden
It is hard to believe that summer is already winding down - at least from an academic year standpoint. It was a fun-filled summer for us, and one of the things I got to do was spend a little time out in our yard taking pictures of the garden.

Oregon and The Redwoods
Our family travelled out to Oregon this summer to visit family, and as always Oregon was beautiful! I usually bring a camera but the these trips aren’t about photography - it’s a good old American vacation.
