Welcome to my website

Zebra swallowtail butterfly on cardinal flowerThanks for visiting website where I share some of my images as well as information about our backyard and native plants.

My love of nature led to photography, and photography has led me to an even deeper appreciation of nature. Using a camera slows me down and encourages me to look closer. As a result, I am often amazed at the mystery and beauty that is close at hand.

In 2005-06, we re-landscaped our backyard, focusing on native plants. As a result, we now see  more birds, butterflies, and interesting insects. My weekly blog focuses on backyard observations and is one way of sharing some of what I learn. I hope this website will encourage networking and be a resource for others with similar interests.

Several of my images can be seen by by visiting the photo galleries. Some images are available as notecards which are sold at Good Foods Market and Cafe and the Lexington Arboretum. Notecards may also be obtained by contacting me. I welcome inquiries about the use of images for publication or other purposes.

I welcome questions, comments, and suggestions. Feel free to contact me.
