So I met some family in Cowlesville, NY this evening. No I did not ride a bike, and yes I actually drove a car. Anyhow, I had stopped to take a few photos of the countryside when these beautiful animals came into view. They, of course, knew that I was there before I saw them,Continue reading “Majestic…”

The cardinal is back, and also a quick note…
Well, the cardinal is back…or at least he’s showing himself to me again. And he’s letting me get closer to him…I really think he knows or remembers me and knows that I mean no harm. I’m not sure where his mate has been though. Maybe she’s sitting on a nest of eggs. I also didn’tContinue reading “The cardinal is back, and also a quick note…”

More Birds…
So you may be getting tired of pictures of birds that I post on this blog. Sorry. But, I enjoy them. And what I think is pretty incredible is that they are all taken in the city center…nature in the city. Anyhow, I shot these today while out running errands on my bike. Urban Simplicity.

This is lovely, truly it is…
I long to do this but with a bicycle and walking. For her kickstarter campaign (to fund her documentary), click here. Just a really lovely and inspiring video, that’s all I have to say. Urban Simplicity.
Buffalo Creek on Christmas Day
Yesterday and the day prior I drove a car (yup, it’s true…Buffalo Car Share). Two of my sisters live about 25 miles from me and this is the best way to get to them on a cold Christmas day. Anyhow, I used the opportunity to snap a few photos along the way. All of theContinue reading “Buffalo Creek on Christmas Day”

Morning and Evening…the view from my handlebars and front porch
It’s incredible to think that these two photos were taken a mere 11 hours apart and on the same day. It was/is a beautiful autumn day. The above photo was taken on my very short commute to work at about 8am and the below photo was taken from my front porch about 7pm. I justContinue reading “Morning and Evening…the view from my handlebars and front porch”

Three more from a garden…
Though I took these photos today they are really a continuation of a previous post. My apologies if I’m boring you with flower photos all summer but I just can’t help myself…they look so beautiful to me when viewed up close. At any rate, there’s only another month or so of them left before weContinue reading “Three more from a garden…”

A City Bird, a Country Bird, a Sleeping Pig, and a few Other things I saw While Walking Recently…
These photos were taken over this past week either in the early morning hours while having coffee in Union Square Park or while on walks at Stony Point Retreat Center. Some of them are obvious of their location while others are not. I find nature in the heart of a city especially beautiful. Urban Simplicity.
Three Flowers in the Sun…

Crocuses and Lillies…evidence of spring
Despite the cold temps, these plant still manage to push through the damp soil and reach for the sun. Amazing isn’t it? In a few month’s time the crocuses will be a memory and the tiger lillies (two below) will all but have taken over my garden. Urban Simplicity.
