  1. Happy Mother’s Day to Mrs. Fox! Sincerest thanks to all the most wonderful photographers and thank you Daily Bulldog for this weekly feature. I look forward to this posting every week.

  2. SO many incredible shots this week! Thanks much to those dedicated to this joy-inducing craft, where you show us week after week all that is beautiful in the flora & fauna and landscapes of Maine. That Female Eastern Bluebird in Wilton shot in particular is ethereally lovely and mesmerizing! Grateful as always for photographers who find joy in honing this blend of art & science (and timing).
