The Ongoing Quest
|
The other day I was talking to a friend about the good old days and the college experience. This was back in the time before social media and cell phones, in fact we didn’t even have a regular phone in our dorm room. And that was freeing if you wanted to have your parents believe that you were studying in the library around the clock. So without texting or calling, much of my time was taken up by looking for my friends. A typical day might involve me coming back to the dorm after class, napping like any college student must do to keep up her strength for the nightlife that ensued.

Beautiful Birds in the Winter

This pretty horned lark, the first one seen by the photographer, was photographed in a scene besting Audubon. He’s a winter bird, very active trying to find things to eat on a cold winter day.
