Just a bit of PS to turn this endearing image of the male cardinal feeding the female on the nest into a sweet dreamy image.
River and I biked/ran along the old highway 512 in Renfrew County and we encountered this “shed complex” that has obviously lived a long and perhaps difficult life! Donation to charity / 50% of the proceeds of the sale of this image will be donated to Algonquin Park
This is my first long dialogue with a doe this spring. The ground is still frozen and some snow remains but she is ready to EAT, and yet she is in no hurry to turn away from the camera before I could get a decent shot of her beautiful figure. :) Donation to charity / 50% of the proceeds of the sale of this image will be donated to Algonquin Park
This group of cabins would absolutely be my “dream home” if the owner would ever let me have them. :)
At this point I am not sure Spring would ever come so perhaps the thaw around the tree over the lake was just some kind of “tease”. :)
Just before the last light of the day disappeared, River and I got to the edge of the forest and she had a good run at the other side of the fence! :)
MY GRANDSON LOOKS OUTSIDE HE LOVES IT. I CAN READ HIS MIND A WORLD IS OUT THERE AND HE WANTS TO BE A PART OF IT.
This is another shed along the same road that River and I could stay over night! :) :) :)
River loved the woods, any large piece of forests where she could find foxes, deer, moose and wolves, or even a piece of woods just has trees would make her heart “leap”. :) Donation to charity / 50% of the proceeds of the sale of this image will be donated to Algonquin Park
My friend Clark made this tree face that I thought was interesting.
The brother and sister recognized River from last fall and they both came to say “hello”. The “brand-new” fawn followed suit as her brother and sister seemed to know us and thought of us as “friends”. :) Before they circled my overjoyed dog and they all ran off together, they first make sure that they got their spring morning “family photo” taken. :) Donation to charity / 50% of the proceeds of the sale of this image will be donated to Algonquin Park
The weeks-old fawn kept trying to lick the “itch” on her new coat. :) Donation to charity / 50% of the proceeds of the sale of this image will be donated to Algonquin Park
The fawn was experiencing some difficulties as all “yummy” treats are high-up. :) Donation to charity / 50% of the proceeds of the sale of this image will be donated to Algonquin Park
The fawn was watching the squirrel intently, wishing he could come down from the high branches and play with her! :) Donation to charity / 50% of the proceeds of the sale of this image will be donated to Algonquin Park
The young buck showed his serious face for his spring “passport photo” as his new antlers have not yet out. :)
This is my favorite doe, who posed for us last fall, for many many pictures! She gave birth to a few more fawns this spring, who have become River’s “new best friends”. She is just as proud and pretty as last year!
I took this photo of a little bunny in my daughter’s back yard; it seemed to be folding its little paws in prayer. I decided to make it into a card wishing blessings on someone’s life.
Ma Puce in french means, My Flee. It’s a term of endearment and very cute. / This is my take on it.

To distinguish them from bush crickets or katydids, they are sometimes referred to as short-horned grasshoppers. Species that change colour and behaviour at high population densities are called locusts. In popular culture / Aesop (620–560 BC), a slave and story-teller who lived in Ancient Greece told a tale called The Ant and the Grasshopper. In this tale, the ant worked hard preparing his shelter and stores of food all summer, while the grasshopper played. Once the winter came, the ant was prepared and the grasshopper, having no shelter or food begs to enter the ant’s house. The ant refuses and the grasshopper starves to death. The 1957 film Beginning of the End featured mutated giant grasshoppers attacking Chicago. “Grasshopper” is a term currently used in jest referencing a person who has much to learn. Its use originating from the television show Kung Fu (1972-1975) in which the student, Young Caine, portrayed by Radames Pera is taking instruction from his Master Po portrayed by Keye Luke who nicknamed his student “Grasshopper” as a term of endearment. In the 1998 movie A Bug’s Life, in an apparent homage to the Aesop fable, The Ant and the Grasshopper, where the heroes are the members of an ant colony, and the lead villain and his henchmen are grasshoppers, the lead villain is then eaten by a bird. The Japanese superhero franchise “Kamen Rider” originally had a grasshopper motif, with a grasshopper based helmet and costume. This was later toned down in favour of other motifs in more recent Kamen Rider series, though some features of the original hero remain (‘bug eyes’).

Information courtesy Wikipedia here Grasshoppers are insects of the suborder Caelifera in the order Orthoptera. To distinguish them from bush crickets or katydids, they are sometimes referred to as short-horned grasshoppers. Species that change colour and behaviour at high population densities are called locusts. Courtesy Wikimedia here The family Tettigoniidae, known in American English as katydids and in British English as bush-crickets, contains more than 6,400 species. It is part of the suborder Ensifera and the only family in the superfamily Tettigonioidea. They are also known as long-horned grasshoppers, although they are more closely related to crickets than to grasshoppers. Many tettigoniids exhibit mimicry and camouflage, commonly with shapes and colors similar to leaves. Tettigoniids may be distinguished from grasshoppers by the length of their filamentous antennae, which may exceed their own body length, while grasshoppers’ antennae are always relatively short and thickened. The males of tettigoniids have sound-producing organs (via stridulation) located on the hind angles of their front wings. In some species females are also capable of stridulation. There are about 255 species in North America, but the majority of species live in the tropical regions of the world. The diet of tettigoniids includes leaves, flowers, bark, and seeds, but many species are exclusively predatory, feeding on other insects, snails or even small vertebrates such as snakes and lizards. Some are also considered pests by commercial crop growers and are sprayed to limit growth. Large tettigoniids can inflict a painful bite or pinch if handled but seldom break the skin. The males provide a nuptial gift for the females in the form of a spermatophylax, a nutritious body produced with the males’ ejaculate. The eggs of tettigoniids are typically oval shaped and laid in rows on the host plant. My Images Do Not Belong To The Public Domain. All images are copyright © taiche. All Rights Reserved.
