I found TWO locations where the wildflowers are going to be ripe with various species of butterflies, but I’m really struggling with finding patience while waiting for them to arrive.

While scanning the tree line for something interesting, I found out I was something interesting for this little guy. 🦌 Zoom in on those tiny antlers coming in.

Chicago’s most popular bird, the Piping Plover! Imani, I think, this morning on Montrose Beach

I've been out and about lately and was lucky to stumble upon some Tundra Swans that are apparently unusual visitors to this spot. #birds #photography

Like this pelican, I too have my head on backwards because I am moving to Chicago in a week. 🤪🥶

Mistakes I made today:
1. Listing too many items on FB Marketplace for too cheap.
2. Reading my news feed.

Anyway, here's one of my favorite photos to help calm me.

Rooting for the Eagles today! Mostly because I have a photo of an eagle and I once lived in Philadelphia. #birdohotography #naturephotography

As I spend this week in Chicago, I am in awe of birds and the fact that they do not have to wear a coat. 🥶 #birds #photography #naturephotography

Actual photo of me walking away from the news today. Looks like a good day to focus on #birds and #naturephotography

Took a little holiday time off to reflect & accidentally bought a house in the Chicagoland area.🤪 Guess we're moving soon. Hit me up with some Chicago bird hotspots - or any photography hot spot for that matter.

What are the reasons one might have to be 18 to buy super glue? I ask because I just got carded. On the plus side, I’m no where near 18 any longer.

I am ridiculously lucky to call Tom a good friend - the dad jokes are real and just as brutal as they say. Congratulations on 2000 ⚡️games. #GoBolts

Our head athletic trainer, Tom Mulligan, will be working his 2,000th game tonight!

John Lennon was assassinated 44 years ago today by a man who flew from Hawaii to New York with a handgun in his suitcase. He shot Lennon five times with hollow-point bullets. Since then, over 1.5M people in America have been shot and killed - many more wounded.

Imagine…

Headed to the Windy City! And this Georgia girl had to buy a coat to make it happen.

The juncos are back in town. Love these round little guys, but maybe that’s because I am a little round myself.

Had to brave this chilly Georgia day to go get butter. Somehow, someway, someone threw an entire tub away on Thanksgiving. 🤷‍♀️ Unrelated, here's a mallard duck for your feed.

Feel like screaming today? This is a red-shouldered hawk that lives in my backyard and doesn’t care about waking his neighbors up.

After a flurry of cardinals flew into my screened-in porch, one got stuck. He cannot seem to find the wide open door despite the trail of sunflower seeds leading to the door that I've left for him. Any other ideas? Ps. I keep the door cracked open for the dog to come in and out. #birds
