It's football season in the United States and this is what at looks like at high schools across the nation on Friday night.

This is from the same lake/sunset I uploaded a few days ago.

I'd love to spend a week on this island all by myself. Undecided if I can do it without internet?

We caught a very clear video clip of a mountain lion passing through the backyard on a wildlife camera last night.

This is pretty wild! We're about 10 minutes from the Northwest corner of Mille Lacs Lake.

Mountain Lions are very rare in Minnesota, especially this part of Minnesota.

I took some of my favorite photos here mid winter when it was all ice and shadows.

This is pretty nice too.

What you don't see in this image are the mosquitos that were eating me alive just 30 feet away.

I'm back with another image. This one taken last week on Burrito night. But, the photo has nothing to do with Burritos. It's just a fishing boat.

More beaver content. Close enough to the hut from yesterday to drop by and borrow a cup of sugar, but not so close as to be a nusiance.

Quite surprised to learn that the trails at Cuyuna are already open this weekend. I will have to make sure my bike is ready for a ride this week.

I REALLY need to get back onto my bike as much as possible.

In a break from my daily drone photo series, let me share these interesting (not necessarily good) photos taken today.

The ice is coming off Mille Lacs Lake (in early May) and as the wind blows it against shore it grates together and forms piles, up to 10ft high, of ice chips on the ice and near shore.

The sandhill cranes visited us yesterday, but this photo is also a few weeks old. It's a bit hard to see them, but that's intentional on their part.

Photo from last week. Still a little snow and ice at the time. Near Mille Lacs Lake.

Two images today so that I can get one from the air.

Snow is almost gone, but the ice on the lake is still quite thick.

Water (now ice) in ponds is very dark from ground in this area.

I'm back in the air, but my first shot back is pretty low to the ground. The deer are my less easily spooked than they were a few months ago.

Yesterday my dad predicted the arrival of the Red Winged Blackbirds within 2 days.

They arrived today.

I don’t know if you’ve noticed but I’m still lacking words for how to describe what I witnessed last Thursday. All I know is that I’m astonished every time I go through the 400 or so photos I made that night & have no idea how to whittle them down to the best. There are such subtle intricacies in some & who can say what image is better? This is a very pleasant “problem” to have.

A quick one...
Last night was unbelievable. No, I'm nowhere near 100% back to health. However with data like last night's, I couldn't resist. Tried went to a different spot than I usually do & I think it paid off despite having to snowshoe in!
The last time I saw it this good was the Father's Day 2015 storm, so this is a rare treat that all the stars aligned (pun intended)
