As I was walking along a shallow part of a small stream I scared this fairly large chub minnow that was probably traveling between pools in the stream. In his hast to get away from me he hid under this leaf in the stream. The water was very shallow just barely covering him so I was able to get a pretty good photo of him. April 2013
In the spring, migrating long-billed curlews make their way to their nesting grounds in southwest Idaho after spending the winter in warmer climates. Since 2009, our friends at the Intermountain Bird Observatory have taken advantage of their more stationary habits during the nesting season to equip birds with radio trackers. Data provided through these efforts is helping to uncover mysteries of migration and mortality and further the conservation of these protected non-game birds.
A sedge (flock) of sandhill cranes was circling above my house and once three other sedges joined them, they headed north.

Modern Monoliths migrating investigates the power-laden language dictating public and private space. Here, phone booths, designed for private conversation in a public place, become a repository for speech between unknown parties. Inside each booth, sloganeering voices articulate force, reward, and persuasion, showing how power is historically established and maintained. It is short, repetitive, and persuasive, yet accompanied by a subversive, whispered voice. In juxtaposition to the traditional active participation of phone booths, audience agency is undermined through a forced passivity, mirroring public and private tensions and intersections.
Geographically placed at the convergence of several types of power—river power, the political and cultural power of the city, and the onsite electrical plant—this work renders internal the external play of power.

I bought this printer's block at an antique store in Northern Wisconsin. Could it be a crane? Heron?
