Outliers | Pathway to Nature

Outliers | Pathway to Nature   Springtime bursts with life at Crabtree Nature Center.  From tree buds to turtles, spring brings to life all that is natural in northern Illinois.  OK, it’s not spring right now.  Still, it’s a cool image.  See Way Cool | a 7 Image Story for more of my favorite off beat images.

The Back Story   Simple click while walking the park!    Note: I post an image everyday at hankconrad.com.

Walkabout: Crabtree Nature Center

Walkabout: Crabtree Nature Center

Walkabout: Crabtree Nature Center!  Occasionally, folks ask me: where are your walkabouts?  Actually, most of the time I start from my front door and walk one of several routes close to home.  Sometimes, I’ll make a special trip to a park, forest preserve, or hiking path.  This image comes from one such place; Crabtree Nature Center near Barrington, IL.  Its hiking paths wind along restored great plains prairie grasses, forest, and lakes.  The nice afternoon light made a tranquil setting for the Canada Geese.
