A herd of rocky mountain elk (Cervus canadensis nelsoni) on the Nature Conservancy's Zumwalt Prairie Preserve, Oregon. Elk generally find it safer in the open as mountain lions and wolves will ambush them in forest settings.

For Mother's Day, we decided to find a new place to walk and chose Happy Valley Forest managed by the Nature Conservancy. It was a day of spring woodland flowers. Very nice.

Nature does not exist to dazzle us with it's beauty or to fascinate us in all of it's complexity. The earth itself has not been created to sustain us, heal us, delight us, or entertain us. Yet nature and the earth do all of these things. Is it too much to ask for us to show a little appreciation and effort at conservation?

Nature Conservancy. Cape May, NJ. I was told by the volunteer at the refuge that the eggs of two of the three Oyster Catcher nests had been eaten by coyotes. When I was at this same beach two years ago there were probably 100 nests of various birds. This year there were only three sets of Oyster Catchers.
