Wood turtle

Gravid and looking for the perfect spot to lay her eggs. Usually they allow me to get their portrait, but some are shy.

New kid in the woods


He, (or she, I don't know) was born June 3. Here he is at a week old.


Lady slippers

They are past,their flowers are all dried,but the perfect prelude to summer.





Coyotes

Back in May, I had a camera trap set up in the woods. After several days I went back and had this short video of a pair of coyotes. The quality is not the best, but adds to the mystery of the moment.
