Above The Great Marsh
Today’s self assignment:
The Great Marsh is a long, continuous saltmarsh in eastern New England extending from Cape Ann in northeastern Massachusetts to the southeastern coast of New Hampshire. It includes roughly 20,000-30,000 acres of saltwater marsh, mudflats, islands, sandy beaches, dunes, rivers, and other water bodies.
Painted trillium
Trillium is one of my favorite spring woodland wildflowers. Encountered this one in Bridgton, Maine. Look for trillium in shaded forests, late May to mid-June.
Glaciers I have known
I’ve been thinking about a solo trip I took to Glacier National Park about 10 years ago. There were no more than 25 glaciers to see and identify; a small fraction of the 150 or so glaciers estimated to have inhabited the park about 100 years ago Some scientists are predicting that the number of measurable glaciers in the park will be zero within our lifetimes. To deny the existence of global warming is criminal. Government and business leaders who ignore the warming planet should leave their posts, willingly or not.
Plum Island — Fall afternoon
I’ve been visiting the Parker River National Wildlife Refuge in Newbury, MA since 1980. It’s always the same and different each time. The receding tide is magical. As always, these photographs are available as licensed images for commercial usa, and as custom archival prints for display.
Late Fall Colors In Massachusetts
It’s been hot here in October — in the seventies for many days — and the chlorophyll has persisted; keeping the leaves green. Until this week when orange, red, and yellow won.

Late Fall Afternoon on the Concord River
The leaves are now gone and the Concord River flows slowly through Massachusetts on its way to the sea. This image is available as a custom archival print of any size, or licensed for commercial use.

Lake Quannapowitt Color
I live 3 miles from Lake Quannapowitt, where maples, apple trees, and birches are hitting their peak color for the season.
