Apparently, it's squirrel appreciation day. Here's a picture I captured of a cute one some time back. This is a nice distraction from current events.

January 10 - Save the eagles day

Since the 90s, the eagle has really made a comeback in the US. Today, there are over 300k+ bald eagles in the lower 48. Did you know they can live up to 30yrs in the wild?

January 6 – Staying safe after the ice storm.

The ice storm left a path of fallen trees and power outages, but it also turned the world into a crystal wonderland. Nature’s beauty often comes with a price. Stay safe and take in the icy views. #WinterStorm #NaturePhotography #photography
