An Ant Queen about to embark on her forst flight from a grass stem in my backyard, September 2018. Many ant species coordinate the departure of their queens and males (the only flighted individuals in an ant colony) with other colonies nearby by reacting to tenperature and rainfall cues. This ant, if successful in mating and finding a location to start a nest, could begin a colony of thousands. . . . .

He was trying to hide and as small as he is I don’t blame him. The local birds might have thought he would make a good breakfast. Still he was also keeping an eye on me. #backyardnature #lizard #louisiana #nature #naturephotography https://instagr.am/p/Ce_2Lz2uLpj/

Deer Diary,

One of my friends just suggested I start a blog with this name, and I got excited about it, so now we are here, with the deer.

My plan is to post about my backyard/front yard/neighbor deer! I receive many visits from them, and they bring me much joy.

When my partner and I toured the place we now live, there were two fawns in the front yard (above). At the time, it seemed like a magic treat that we saw deer. Now that we live here, it turns out that different deer visit multiple times a week, and I couldn’t be happier to have them. So now I have a place to share photos and updates (are videos of interest?) about these creatures which bring me joy. I can already tell one doe apart from the others, and want to try to recognize more of the other repeat guests. Similarly, I don’t know much about deer or deer lifecycles, and since there’s fawns, this could be a great chance to learn some things! 

These friends are near

These friends are dear

And these friends are deer!

(I had hesitations about what platform to use, and while tumblr is a shadow of its past self for reasons, it seemed like the best format.)

Lots of love,

Daphne

Not my typical plant/nature post but thought I’d share. Looks like my neighbor is out of hibernation!
