When Birds Recycle February 3, 2012
I was out and about on Sunday, cleaning up after the dogs and looking for wildlife of interest. January is not always the best time of year to find things, but Florida has experienced a relatively warm winter and spring is in the air so we have our fair share of resident wildlife meandering around....

Orange Moon and The Grandmother Tree February 1, 2012
Exploring the wonders of nature with the children who come to visit my wildlife garden is one of the greatest joys of my life. We turn over rocks to look for the Worm Snake who lives there.

Green Healthy Lawns and Yards without Chemicals January 31, 2012

Letchworth State Park, NY

Our family has been making annual treks to visit Letchworth State Park for almost 25 years. Nicknamed the Grand Canyon of the East it has never failed to stun with its majestic views of the Genesee River gorge and three separate waterfall areas. The park is magnificent filled with trees, native plants, stone structures and wildlife, but it’s the jaw-dropping views of the 550′ rock walls stretching up from the Genesee River below that reveal the true power of nature.

Oh, how lush and lovely. Are you allowed to play in the falls? We have a spot out here where we hike to the falls and then play in the rushing water. Great fun on a hot summer day.

Thses falls are in a very, very deep gorge so no playing allowed. However, there is another park about an hour from us that has multiple waterfalls and natural pools that everyone can play in… but that’s another post!
