Fox in winter landscape

Winter photos from the woods in Glen Arbor. We watch this sly fox daily from our window as he forages for a winter meal.

Ducks in the Cedar River Natural Area.

Winter in our area is magical for me. I just have to look out my windows and life is all around us. These four coyotes found a frozen deer carcass under the ice, and they played and chased crows, sometimes laying down in the snow, while patiently waiting as one life sustained another. An eagle came by to check things out, but also waited, until the coyotes were gone. Today the crows and gulls complete the cycle in the winter sun.

A lovely Mute Swan sleeps, warming in the winter sun, on the Carp River in Leland. The swan's webbed footprints in the fresh snow form a pattern with the prints of a fox, left not too long before.

In spite of 9º temps and heavy snow squalls, this bald eagle came to rest in a tree on the ridge overlooking West Bay just south of Suttons Bay. After surveying the water, he turned around to look at me! This is a good omen for 2010!
