Big difference from 80°F last night to near freezing today. We got outside to enjoy anyhow. Hope your cooler day went well. Got some blooms opening outside. The hummingbirds are pretty quick to find them when they open so 🤞 #nature #bloomscrolling #photography #getoutside #aprilshowers

Laughing Gulls (Charadriiformes: Laridae: Leucophaeus atricilla) feed on a wide variety of invertebrates and fish, so they're mainly found near coasts. They spend summers as far north as the Great Lakes and Maine and migrate south in winter. Padre Island National Seashore, Texas, 17 Jun 2017.

Someone memorialized a dead bat down by the park. Rest in peace little buddy 🦇 🌅
Rocks anchor piece of paper at base of large tree with the words dead bat written in marker and an arrow pointing to an actual dead bat resting at the bottom of the paper.

Hey #gardening people. I have no idea what I'm doing so I let the kids pick some seed packs, put them in dirt under a grow lamp, water and this is what happened so far. When r u supposed to plant #indoors? #flowers and vegetables? #greenthumbs ? #seedlings #learndirt

Seedlings under a grow lamp. I don't know what I'm doing so I germinated some seeds and moved them into pots after they sprouted. They seem to be growing decently. Hopefully they turn into lots of beautiful of flowers... Thinking about doing Aquaponics. Fish and flowers 🤔 #gardening #flowers

I love that sound. I remember well a small Wisconsin lake we fished because after a perfect summer day, the frogs and crickets started singing quietly as the sun grew low then crescendoed into the most amazingly loud and beautiful chorus I've ever heard. It was magical. I was 7 or 8. So peaceful. ❤️

The moon. Tuesday morning 6:33am est, a lunar eclipse/blood moon reaches its maximum. A blood moon refers to the reddish hue the moon assumes passing through Earth's shadow. Rise early, have some coffee and enjoy the show! (weather permitting) #lunareclipse #bloodmoon #nature #photography

Hiking in the woods when every crow in the county showed up. Groups of five or six just kept streaming in from the valley for the last half hour, setting up farther back over the hill and they are LOUD. I wasn't invited, so I left. Hope the murder has a killer time. 😁 Have a good night everyone! 🌃

I am ready to bid farewell to February and especially to the cold. I'm ready to pack away my winter gear, put on shorts and GO. But I'm probably being a bit premature... Have a good night and a wonderful Friday morning! #hiking #nature #photography

Has been so cold for so long I had to spend a lot of time outside. Felt like a caged animal let loose. Hiked along a stream. Saw where a woodpecker did some serious labor on an old tree. I hope whatever they found was worth all that effort. Have a good holiday! Or regular day if not presidents day.
