Really interesting walk yesterday through the very foggy Longmarsh Preserve in Durham, NH.

Lots of birds, as usual, but I also saw my first ever wild mink.

I missed the eclipse (too tired), but I got a couple of decent shots of the full moon last night at the beach. Here's one.

Guys, are we about to find something out that is horrifying

Can confirm. And if this happens nationwide we are absolutely all going to fucking die.

Tonight, by request, I made crab cakes for my parents, and some roasted Brussels sprouts with pancetta, lemon, and shallots. All really good!

It's dangerous to go alone!
Take this.

Pics of tonight's Snow Moon. I've decided that this year, I want to take more moon photos that focus on the context and the scene, not just the moon herself.

Hiking on the Dover Community Trail yesterday and caught this beautiful little robin stopping on the sumac for a snack.

View of the Adirondacks from Burlington, VT, on this day 2 years ago.

This photo has a very special meaning to me, as it marked the real beginning of my journey to leave my marriage, concluded about 1 month ago.
