Colored bacteria mats can survive at high temps at the edges of hot pools. These bacteria are related to some of the most ancient life forms on earth. About Me
For years we have kept track of events such as the arrival of the first Hummingbird or the blooming of the first Marsh Marigold. We have now begun to photograph these events and felt others may be interested in what we run into in our "nature wanderings". CLICK ON PHOTOS TO ENLARGE THEM. TO VIEW ALL THE PHOTOS FOR A PARTICULAR MONTH JUST CLICK ON THE MONTH DESIRED. All photos are copyrighted but may be used for educational purposes if credit is given to authors of this blog.
