About Me

Mary Richmond: Cape Cod, Massachusetts, United States; Thanks for stopping by to share my love of the beauty and nature of Cape Cod. I am an artist, writer, naturalist and educator. Everything interests me, everything is a possible subject for contemplation and learning.

Winter is here....

Winter ducks are fun to sort out
Listen for owls and coyotes at night
Snow buntings in the dunes
Snow could happen...if it gets colder ;-)
Watch for snowy owls! Big year for them...
Immature eagles are here
Keep an eye out for young hawks that are bolder than the adults
Days are already getting longer...

Winter...

If you are missing my Weekly Nature Watch in the Enterprise....

Please write or call your local editor. The Region Section is no longer a separate part of the paper and each editor makes the call weekly as to whether my column goes in to their paper. I am lobbying to get the column posted online each week but please feel free to contact the paper on your own. When readers speak, editors listen.

Inspirational Winter Nature Quotes

O, wind,

If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind?

~Percy Bysshe Shelley

Of winter's lifeless world each tree

Now seems a perfect part;

Yet each one holds summer's secret

Deep down within its heart.

~Charles G. Stater

The color of springtime is in the flowers, the color of winter is in the imagination. ~Terri Guillemets

Keeping a nature journal

Sketching nature daily or weekly is a great excuse to get outside and a great way to better both your observation and drawing skills.
