Logan Kendrick Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 How have you been enjoying nature recently? Whether it’s the nature you keep and maintain in your home, or somewhere you explored, if it has brought you joy feel free to share! I have mostly been working outside the store since returning to work. The other day I got to enjoy a few moments of this visiting dragonfly between customers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H.K.Luterman Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 I enjoyed some nature taking out our fence the other day. 😉 It's been too hot and humid for me lately to really go walking, but I am very happy to have woods around my house, which has tons of wildlife... even if it gets rambunctious sometimes. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bm3aquatic Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Nature heals so many things. I am lucky to live on our family farm. Here are some of the things on my farm that bring me so much joy. Hope they bring some to you too. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KBOzzie59 Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 It's a very short drive from my backyard to the middle of nowhere. And if I can't get out there is always something entertaining around the house. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForestJenn Posted August 1, 2020 Share Posted August 1, 2020 We spent the day on a local lake about 40 minutes north of us. Lots of lily pads, bull frogs, dragon flies and jumpy large mouth bass. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Cory Posted August 2, 2020 Administrators Share Posted August 2, 2020 With the travel restrictions, I haven't gotten out much into nature at all. I need to though, need to go looking in some rivers or something 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBOzzie59 Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Looking through some of my old pics. Wave action on Ascension Island. Early 90's, made two trips. One for two weeks for GPS ground station upgrade, then a 6 month stay for a complete communications center upgrade. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I need to though, need to go looking in some rivers or something 😉 The trick is to find someplace that's not too crowded. We were up at Sunday Lake near Stanwood. It's a small lake with one rickety old dock that is nominally maintained by the state. But it was perfect for two boys and their inflatable kayaks. We pretty much had it all to ourselves on a Friday.

Daniel Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 (edited) @Streetwise Nice Video! How did you smooth out* the part where you walked?

Streetwise Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 (edited) Thanks. That was my iPhone with the Osmo Mobile 3, not the Osmo Pocket. I leave the mini tripod attached to the gimbal. Fun fact, Lake Champlain is home to the oldest known coral reefs. I think Isle La Motte, specifically, but there are reefs all around, and we are reminded of them when sailboat racing sometimes. Shouldn't have cut that corner around the island! 😉 Edited August 4, 2020 by Streetwise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForestJenn Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 (edited) We spent half a day at a local state park and had some fun walking some short trails. I was fascinated by the black slugs, we get some that are as large or larger in our yard, but they are always baby poop brown. Other times I've seen the bright green ones. Black was new to me. I was super disappointed to discover that they are invasive. That's my face mask for size reference. They have all sorts of uses!

Rikostan Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 (edited) This isn't my image, but it was taken about 2 miles from my house a couple days ago The next two pics I took from where I am sitting right now typing this. I don't do anything at all with with about a quarter acre of our property, except pile brush in the late summer and early fall months, so we sometimes get a family of fox or turkey that move in. The next one is another one of my hobbies. We live right on lake Ontario and my kayak sits right by the water for most of the year. I love getting out on the bay by us and just paddle all day. So much to see, especially during the bird migrations. This last one was a few years ago. It was taken on a nice day in January. the temps were pretty warm and the lake was like glass, so I went out for a paddle. That ice on the shore is a good ten foot thick. Here is a video from that day... I guess it was longer than a few years ago, the date is over ten years ago. 🙂 Edited August 20, 2020 by Rikostan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alesha Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 This was one of those "uh-oh" things: we tried to grow a pineapple, but it died. So, my hubby pitched it to the back corner of the yard. A year later...Ta-Da!!! Our cute little pineapple was growing. We enjoyed watching the progress of it, and the EATING of it a few weeks ago. You will never taste a sweeter pineapple than the ones that grow in your own back yard! 🙂 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Cory Posted August 20, 2020 Administrators Share Posted August 20, 2020 Saw these big bullfrogs, not something we typically see since we live in the city. I had to zoom in on my phone cause if we got close they'd jump into the water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Just came in from working the honey bees and my wife said "what is that on your head?" It was nature in the form of a big robber fly that had just assassinated a honey bee on my head enjoying a meal while I enjoyed looking at my new sparkling gouramis. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
