Baird Creek

Wild Bee on Wild Bergamot

Bee, Honey Bee, Bergamot, Flower

The wild bergamot blooms seemed to be a favorite work site of the wild bees. This is another image gathered from our hike through the nature trail along Baird Creek in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

This was a difficult image to capture because the lighting was pretty dim and the bee wouldn’t hold still, but I do like the detail of the translucent wings.

Soaking In The Shimmer

Frog, Water, Head,

As we were hiking along the banks of Baird Creek in Green Bay, Wisconsin I spooked a small frog that dove for the water. It surfaced a moment later near a large rock.  As it sat there, I was able to snap several photos.

This is my favorite photo from that hike.  The reflection of the overcast sky on the rippling water created a very cool, shimmering effect. I didn’t expect this. It was a happy accident. The water seemed clear to my naked eye, but the camera picked up the refelection.

You can fill your screen with the cool shimmer by simply clicking on the photo. You’ll get a better look at the frog, too. It’s eyes are pretty neat.

Sweet Memorable Bouquet

Flower, Forget Me Nots

This sweet, petite bouquet of flowers were found blooming on the banks of Baird Creek in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The whole group is not much bigger than the end of my thumb. These are commonly known as Forget-Me-Nots.

I learned that these flowers had an ancient Greek name (μυοσωτίς) that translates as “mouse’s ear”  It is the official flower of Alaska.  They are some of my favorite wildflowers to find, even though they are difficult to photograph well because of their diminutive size.  Of course, I also think they are pleasantly pretty.

Damsel at Rest

Damselfly, Flying Insect, Baird Creek

This damselfly took a brief break from hectic flitting to and fro to pose for a portrait.  It was not willing to stay long, so I’m happy I got a few snaps before it was on it’s way.

Damselflies are often confused with dragonflies.  The easy identifying factor is that damselflies usually fold their wings together when at rest, aligned with the line of their body.  Dragonflies usually rest with their wings spread out. This is another image from our recent hike on the Baird Creek trail system in Green Bay, WI.

You can get a better look at the lacey detail in the wings by clicking on the photo.  That will open a larger, full-screen version of this image in a new browser tab.

Slender Sunbather

Snake, Serpent, Woods

While hiking a nature trail on the east end of Baird Creek in Green Bay, Wisconsin, I spotted this fellow sunning itself on the side of a small hill in the forest.  The area was mostly shaded by the trees, but it found one area of sunlight.  I’m not snake expert, but I believe this is a common gartersnake.  It may have been two to three feet long.  As I got closer with my camera, it quickly slithered away.

I know a lot of people don’t like snakes, but if you’d like to get a closer look at this harmless variety, simply click on the photo to view a more detailed, full-screen version of this photo.

Wild Bergamot

Bergamlot, Wildflower, Purple

We went hiking on one of the nature trails along Baird Creek in Green Bay, Wisconsin.  At the very beginning of our walk we saw patches of this wild flower – Wild Bergamot.  We’ve seen it in the woods before, but had to look it up for the name. It’s a pretty purple with a unique combination of petals and spikes. It also seemed pretty prolific.

There will be more photos from our Baird Creek hike. To see this one in a larger size, click on the photo and a full-screen version will open in a new browser tab.

Baird Creek Bed

Creek, Baird Creek, Nature

This is a summertime view of Baird Creek – a natural treasure that winds through northeast Green Bay, Wisconsin.

I took this photo while on a recent hike along one of the well-kept nature trails that accompany the creek. It’s a great place to get out into nature while still in the city.
