Ice and Snow can be Beautiful too, a Late Winter Walk in the Lehigh River Gorge.
I enjoyed the beauty of the tropics this past week during my visit to Belize and, will admit, I wasn’t looking forward to returning to the record breaking cold in my hometown in Northeastern Pennsylvania. I was planning to just do some walking in town today since I had a lot of unpacking and chores…
Venus and Mars and a crescent Moon, from 35,000 feet.
Check out the crescent moon, Venus and Mars low in the west. They are spectacular viewed from 35,000 feet. Loving this airplane internet.
And so all good things must end, farewell Crooked Tree, Belize, thanks for a wonderful week.
Off to the airport shortly, and not looking forward to heading back to the record breaking cold of the north. Even filtered down here to the tropics. Took my last hike through this quaint little village, which I have come to know, and love. Took a little detour along the Stiles Thomas Trail, which runs…
Snail Kite, Crooked Tree Lagoon, Belize 2-16-2015
Had some free time this morning, and the internet was working, so wanted to share some photos of this beautiful and unique bird, the snail kite. I took them on our early morning boat ride on Monday morning on the Crooked Tree Lagoon. The hawk feeds exclusively off of apple snails. The photo below shows…
Walking the backroads of Belize

We have a northerly wind which brought in some cooler temperature. Must have dipped into the 60’s this morning and…
Squirrel Cuckoo, Crooked Tree Lagoon, Belize 2/16/2015
This is new to me, so not sure if I’m breaking any blogging rules with my third post today, but wanted to share some of the many photographs I took of the beautiful bird species that live here around the lagoon at Crooked tree. This photo wasn’t taken at a zoo, but from our boat,…
The Belize Zoo, a zoo even animal lovers can love.
After going on safari in Africa last year, I swore I would never visit another zoo. Seeing how content and at home elephants, lions zebras and all the animals were in their natural environment, it seemed cruel and wrong to cage them up for our entertainment. I had no intention of visiting the zoo here…
It’s a Lovely Day in the Neighborhood, an early morning walk through Crooked Tree Belize.
What a difference a day makes. Feeling so much better today, after my bout with the local bacteria these past two days. . It’s almost good to have a temporary illness to make you appreciate how blessed it is to be in good health. Slept well and was up early. No visible sunrise but some…
Sorry No Photos.
Well we have internet tonight but it is almost useless for uploading photos. I’ve been trying to upload a photo of some cashews flowers for an hour now and I give up. I’ll have to update you without ant photos, and I took so many beautiful ones today. Feeling much better now and had a…
