Dolphins in a river? Do tell! Or maybe all I need to do is drop by your blog. (duh) As for staying up late, I’ve been doing that way too much lately, for work! It has really cut into my blog and outdoor time…I’m going to have to address that pretty soon.

Back to work for now…ugh.

You are so right, Amber. I step outside every night, just to hear the frogs, screech-owls, great-horned owls, and pauraques. Tonight I heard coyotes as well. No cameras capture the night sounds but I try to capture them in poetry.
I am so glad to be retired so I can stay up later. (The bad thing about that is I sometimes miss the dawn. This morning early the dolphins were feeding in the river just out from our dock. I may miss that tomorrow if I don’t get to bed!!)

Thank you so much, Kay. I want to run outside too! The good news for me, is that I can almost bet you that I would hear the night calls of frogs and maybe the hooting of owls, which no camera can capture. Maybe you have night sounds that you could enjoy until daylight comes?

Between work, family, and a lousy cold, it has been way too long since I’ve had any quality time outside. I think I’ll self-medicate with an outdoor lunch tomorrow!

I very much enjoyed both words and thoughts! It makes me want to run outside with my camera (but I won’t until daylight!) You are an inspiration.

I LOVE THIS SERIES! This is so cool Amber. Your photos are excellent and the presentation is priceless. Like Jason said, it’s the little things we see all around us every day that make me smile and feel really good inside.

The trick is to be able to really “see” them. As the word was used in the movie Avatar when the Navi said “I See You.” Be aware of what is all around us, be in harmony with nature.

Isn’t it great when you just happen to be looking in the right place at the exact time a tiny little insect is doing something interesting?
