Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge this week on Cee’s Photography at http://ceenphotography.com/2014/01/21/cees-fun-foto-challenge-found-in-nature/ is Found in Nature.
Here are a few things that I have found as I walked around Spring Valley Nature Center in Schaumburg.
Of course, there have been times when I’ve walked the length and breadth of Spring Valley and not found a thing or at least nothing much worth photographing. And then there are days when it’s all happening. Finding this family of muskrats was one of those days.
I was sorry to come across these tent caterpillars as they can cause a lot of damage to tree foliage when found in large numbers.
This delicate Autumn Meadowhawk dragonfly was a more welcome sight.
An interesting find was this piece of tree trunk ‘art’.
A busy little chipmunk found foraging for food.
That tree trunk is cool. Great eye. Your photos are just perfect for this challenge! Thanks so much for participating!
Thanks, Cee, for giving me the opportunity to share some of my nature pics!
Nice, I really like your little frog 🙂
Thank you! There’s just something so weirdly cute about frogs.
I agree 🙂
Great shots. We have a nature preserve here but I’ve yet to see any wildlife.
Thanks, Emilio! Yes, I sometimes think I see more wildlife in my garden than I do at the nature center.
