         Beautiful Feathers of Wild Turkeys.   The largest native bird in Michigan is the Wild Turkey (Meleagris gallopavo).  It has beautiful tail feathers.  See my photos of Wild Turkeys and feathers, in my daily blog.
 
         Review of 2022 Blog Posts.  In 2022, in Michigan, I taught nature science and nature art classes.  I played in the winter snow and smelled the spring wildflowers.  I traveled from ocean to ocean, across the USA, to Washington, Oregon, West Virginia, and North Carolina.  In Michigan, I saw a lot of wildlife.  The fall was especially colorful with a rainbow, a moonbow, and my Sugar Maple turned super red.   See blog highlights and my favorite photos of 2022, in my daily blog.

         Beautiful Browns of Fall Color of November.   Sugar Maple leaves are colorful from mid to late October.  Oak leaves turn color later than Sugar Maple leaves.  Oaks have beautiful browns in late October to early November.  See my photos of fall colors, in my daily blog.
 
         Nature and Art Classes.  This fall, I'm teaching two in-person classes and two online classes.  The classes are within the "Galien Valley Nature and Culture Program," I sign my photos and education materials as the "Pocket Pumpkin Press," the Galien Valley webpages are on the "z-hub z-design" website, and the "ABC Garden" is the set of nature and art activities that I teach.   See sample topics of my classes that I'm teaching this fall, in my daily blog.
 
         Support Birds, Butterflies, and Wildlife.  Native trees support birds, butterflies, and wildlife.  While we can't directly hand food to wildlife and keep wildlife in our houses, we can plant native trees.  Plant native trees, and not just any trees.  Many birds, butterflies, and other wildlife get their food and shelter from native trees, such as the White Oak (Quercus alba), the Wild Black Cherry (Prunus serotina), and the Black Willow (Salix nigra), native trees to Michigan and northeast USA (Wisconsin to Maine, Illinois to New Jersey).   Read more about native trees, in my daily blog. 


         Happy Fall: October, November, December!

         Rainbows and Moonbows.   On October 7, 2022, I was excited to see a full rainbow, in the day, and a moonbow, at night.  A "moonbow" / "lunar rainbow" is a rainbow at night, when it's raining and a full moon is low in the sky.  I never saw or heard of a "moonbow" before, but now I have.  See my photos of rainbows and moonbows in my daily blog.
 
         Rainbow Colors of Sugar Maples.   This October was colorful, not only because of the rainbow and moonbow, but also because of the fall color of Sugar Maple trees.   See my photos of a rainbow of colors of Sugar Maples, in my daily blog.
