As I walked the dunes at the end of Dyke Rd this morning I was aware that I was in such a place and time. I am not vain enough to think that I could ever capture an essence on film never mind an iPhone but I am resolved to return to that place with my Canon and capture the song sparrows on tall spiked plants, and the meadows of flowers that spread to the sea with my good lenses. For now though I will try to share with you moments in my morning at the end of Dyke Rd.

Her photos are beautiful, her captions are inspiring, and her knowledge of flora and fauna instructs on the natural world of the Rideau Lakes and now, Nova Scotia. Welcome, friend, and enjoy!
