Welcome to my nature blog! I love sharing my photos of North Texas! I will keep looking out and hope you do too.

Early this morning as I let Gracie out, I saw the moon setting. January’s moon is called the Wolf Moon. Other names are Old Moon or Ice Moon by the Farmer’s Almanac. The Chinese’s name for the January moon is Holiday Moon. And this is for the Northern Hemisphere. In the Southern Hemisphere, it goes…
The fourth goal was reached, but maybe there is a fifth goal? Of course, we need to get back to vehicles so we can go home. Indeed a fifth goal LOL! Keep looking! The more you know, the more you see and the more you see, the more you know.
Finally, you are probably saying, will they ever make it to the fourth goal. See below 😉 Going to the Caddo National Grasslands has been on my to-do list for sometime. And here is my great opportunity to explore it more closely than I have done before. I have only been there less than half…

On the Gracie afternoon (Tuesday) I might have gone slower than normal. If I need really needed an excuse, it was because I didn’t want to go far because of Gracie. In distance, the outing was really short. How a Wasp Turns Cockroaches into Zombies What Eats Cockroaches? Tiny Spider Brains Overflow Into The Body,…
