Sunset reflections
Walking near the St. Lawrence River as the sun was setting. I was a beautiful evening and large fish were jumping at the bugs.
New visitor
Lots of new spring birds visiting our feeders. Love to listen to the orioles sing!,
Spring buds & chipmunks
While walking in the woods this little chipmunk ran up the tree . It’s hard to see him because when you look up you notice all the leaves starting to pop open with the beautiful sunshine!
May Flowers
Walking through the woods and there was a beautiful little patch of these the sun was shining down on.

The fairies are back for spring 2020!
Come visit our fairy homes! Each spring we migrate through the North Country on our way home for the summer. We live in the woods, where we spend our days bonding with birds, talking with trees, buzzing with bugs, and getting friendly with fungi. As you might guess, we've become expert naturalists. At any time between now and May 26th, find our homes using the clues below. This year, to help us and you stay safe and healthy, use your phone’s camera to scan the QR code on the sign next to our house.
