I've grown fond of the Montana Outdoors blog and photographs. The author, "Montucky," lives in northwestern Montana -- one of my favorite places on the planet -- and records his hikes and other travels around the area in thoughtful, well-chosen words and excellent photographs. On his "About" page, he writes:
There is a very beautiful world out there in the wild country. It is my wish to make it visible, by words and photographs, to those who are interested in seeing it. It seems that we have forgotten that we are part of that natural world and that ultimately it sustains us in both body and spirit.
He's inspiring me to get out more, and to pay more attention to the details. I'm particularly enjoying his photographs of wildflowers, which are like a lesson in wildflower identification. He also had a fascinating series of photo essays on lichens.
Oh, and baby ducks!

Good thing I'm picking up my new glasses today; I read his name as "Monducky".
Well, that would go with the baby ducks photo that inspired my post.
Thank you so much for the link and your very kind words, Patia! You made my day, especially when you noted that you are inspired to get out more now. That is so rewarding by itself! I am both appreciative and humbled by your post.
My pleasure!
The buttercup picture I just posted was directly inspired by your wildflower pics.
Oops, I just realized those are baby geese, not ducks. I DO know the difference.
