Bethany Beach, DE - 2019
Day 1 of my adventure to bethany beach, for a photoshoot, which resulted in total disaster. The story is too long for this, so perhaps in the future, I can explain. Suffice to say, it was 3 days of hell and bonding.

His eyes were fixated on a doe and the must he gave off was strong.
The white-tailed deer is the most common of all of North America’s large mammals. It is also the most widely distributed. A deer's home range is usually less the a square mile. Deer collect in family groups of a mother and her fawns. When a doe has no fawns, she is usually solitary. Male bucks may live in groups consisting of three or four individuals, except in mating season, when they are solitary. White-tailed deer mate in November and the female has one to three fawns after about six months after mating.

Old Bridle Trail to summit of Mount Lafayette, across the Ridge Trail, and down Falling Waters Trail.
Due to nagging injuries, we weren't able to do as much hiking in the mountains this year, but we did get in a couple of good hikes, including a hike along some of the Long Trail and Appalachian Trails in the Green Mountains National Forest. White Rocks tallus filled slopes are here viewed across a narrow valley from a small outcrop we were on. This is a 9 shot composite panorama.

White-faced Saki monkeys get their name due to the males having a white ring around their faces, however females do not. Males boast a black body while the females have a brown coloured coat. They are found in the Amazon Basin rainforests and live in evergreen, coastal and gallery forests.
White-faced Sakis forage in the lower level of trees due to competition for food with Bearded Saki Monkeys in the higher treetops.
Their diet is made up of fruit, seeds and flowers but can occasionally include small animal prey such as birds and bats. Saki monkeys have special canine teeth which enable them to crack open large nuts that other monkeys would normally leave alone.

The low dwarf-shrub vegetation in the foreground is on brown siliceous rock, whereas the pines prefer the whitish dolomite. Apparently the dolomite is less favorable to vegetation in general, so there is less competition for the pine seedlings, allowing them to become established more easily.

One of the very earliest of our spring woodland wildflowers. It's not a true 'spring ephemeral', as its leaves last through the growing season and are, in fact, semi-evergreen. Highly variable in color, from white to pink to blue. I'm particularly fond of the blue version as here.
Taxonomically quite unsettled. Sometimes seen as conspecific with the Eurasian H. nobilis (and would then be H. nobilis var. acuta). Latest molecular data seems to indicate that Hepatica should be folded into Anemone...

A dead tree showing signs of charring. Probably struck by lightning?
White fir (Abies concolor) seems to be highly variable in appearance. These struck me as particularly beautiful, growing with Shasta Red Fir, and Mountain Hemlock.
