This deer, perfectly evolved to flee danger, displays the courage to stand her ground. Beautiful.

Join me on this wonderful journey away from modern life and experience beauty, awe, and adventure that awaits when you are ready to venture…into the woods.

If you live in a rural area or suspect you have wildlife in the area, then I recommend you invest in a trail camera.

I suspect we have some new fawns on the way. Read more here.

While living in the woods can be a wonderful experience, it's important to consider these potential challenges before making the move.

The property’s newest residents are a pair of Carolina Wrens, which I named Kilo Wren and Wrenfield (to the dismay of our local bats).

Join me as I make new discoveries on my journey into the woods. Today, new wildlife and old memories that make a difference.

I have a daily ritual I conduct upon waking. Once I am vertical and before anything else, I walk to the bedroom window, slide one of the blind slats up, and peek outside.

Right now, the deer are feeding out in the cold. A part of me envies their simple, rugged lifestyle.

One thing that strikes me about the flora and fauna I see is their extraordinary self-reliance.

Today, I set up trail cameras on my property, and I'm excited to see what they capture.
