As a child, I was fascinated by all the wild creatures in nature like butterflies, grasshoppers, rabbits, birds, deer, and so on. They were so beautiful and so interesting to observe. I remember looking through my Mom’s and Dad’s bird book, giving each bird photo a letter grade based on how beautiful I thought it was. Once I got into photography, it seemed only natural to photograph wildlife. <\/em>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Fox kits are my absolute favorite baby animal to photograph! My friend and I learned about a fox family on the east side of the state, so we decided to head there and try our luck. We found the fox family and sat in our car, shooting photos of the kits and their antics! I happened to catch a quiet, tender moment between Momma fox and one of her five kits. These types of moments just melt my heart. Nature is awe-inspiring and fills my heart with peace, joy and exhilaration!<\/em><\/p>\n

I captured this photo of an adult Kingfisher feeding her fledgling on a small pond on our family property. I had been seeing these two kingfishers regularly by the pond during the summer. So one day I set up a blind nearby their favorite perch to hopefully get some close photos. I was thrilled when my first time in the blind I was greeted by both of the kingfishers as they did some fishing for their food. This was my favorite image from that day as the Mom kingfisher was feeding her fledgling a minnow she had just caught from out of the pond!\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

I really enjoy nature in Wisconsin as I find it very peaceful and I love seeing all the different wildlife in this state!<\/em><\/p>\n

I took this photo while walking through the UW West Madison Agricultural Research Station. I always bring my camera with me when I visit because I never know what I’m going to see there. The gardens are beautiful during the\u00a0summer months when there\u00a0is usually a variety of butterflies and other\u00a0wildlife present. This Eastern Swallowtail landed on flowers in front of me and remained on them long enough for me to take quite a few photos of it.<\/em><\/p>\n

Saw-whet owl banding has been one of the all-time favorite NRF Field Trips. This image was captured at night, with the glowing red of night-vision headlamps. The red lighting allows the owl\u2019s eyes to stay adjusted to low light, so they can fly off more easily after they have been banded.<\/p>\n
