lizardjay: a friendly cartoon duck (duck)
[personal profile] lizardjay posting in [community profile] common_nature
At the end of last month I visited Indiana for a week, and in that time went on FOUR hikes. There are too many pictures to put here so I'm posting a link to my ~150 picture album: My sister and I are both very into taking pictures so the hikes were very slow :D but I think it really helps in remembering that there's something interesting to see in pretty much every square inch of the outdoors. There is always a bug, or a fungal disease on a leaf, or a shiny drop of water.

The Album

We visited, in order:
  • Ritchie Woods Nature Preserve
  • Summit Lake State Park
  • Shades State Park/Pine Hills Nature Preserve
  • Southwestway Park

The pictures feature:
  • many, many insects
  • a stately gentleman frog, who very kindly let me get within an inch of him
  • snails
  • two snakes
  • cool looking plants/fungi
  • general landscapes

For the most part the locations are broken up by a couple non-nature photos, except for Southwestway Park (which begins at the photo of the yellow spider in the web). Once you get to the art museum pictures there's no more nature, unless you count the clouds outside the plane window.

And it just occurred to me that a frog would pose the same kind of risk to Thumbelina that a bear would to a human; hope she had a zoom lens!
