Kat with White-throated Sparrow (Zonotrichia albicollis)
One day, a juvenile White-throated Sparrow hit our cabin window. We quickly took it off the ground and put it in a small cloth bag (for birds), waited for it to gain conscious, then my co-worker Kat released it back to wherever it belong. It didn't want to fly away right away but did soon afterwards.

Hairy Woodpecker (Picoides villosus) on Mullein
It was always strange to see a woodpecker hanging on a Mullein looking for insects.

Fringed Gentians" (Gentiana crinita)
Beautiful Gentians growing on our site

Halloween Pennant (Celithemis eponina)
Halloween Pennant picking off small insects in the air and eating them right in front of me.

Colorful Sunrise in Carden
Two things that all of us will miss about our site, the sunrise and sunset.

Blurry Night Sky
One night, lightening kept flickering on-and-off behind the clouds, as if someone forgot to fix the light bulb in the sky. Amazing night.
