A few more photos ✌️💚🍵 #bloomscrolling #photography #gardening #nature #bugsky

Hey everybody. I hope you are doing well. It’s been a wild week weather-wise. We had some extreme heat and a big thunderstorm that knocked out the power/internet for a couple days. It came with some beauty though. #landscape #sunset #nature #photography #newyork #catskills #delawareriver #hawksnest

Hey friends. 👋 I hope everyone is doing well. I’ve been really busy and haven’t been able to log on as much as I’d like to, so I’m just going to post a bunch of photos from the last couple weeks and try to catch up on some of your posts. #nature #photography #gardening #bloomscrolling ✌️💚🍵

First poppy of the year. I direct sowed these in November rather than February this time around. My success rate wasn’t nearly as good. It makes sense. More time for them to migrate beneath the soil or be eaten by birds. They only need a month of cold weather. #bloomscrolling #gardening

The great spangled fritillary butterflies are plentiful in our area right now. #nature #bugsky #butterfly

I started this strawberry foxglove from seed last year. They’re a short lived perennial unlike purple 🦊🧤’s which are biennial. They produce way less seeds than purple foxgloves, so they don’t spread at the same rate. I love how fuzzy they are. It’s hard not to pet them. 😆 #gardening #bloomscrolling

Let’s reconvene for the nightly routine by the serene, green, scene. #landscape #nature #photography

The pickerel frog is usually smaller than the bullfrogs & green frogs around here, but they’re the most calm of all the local lithobates because they’re armed w/ toxins that most predators want nothing to do with. Apparently some garter snakes have developed an immunity though. #nature #herpetology

Got some good photo when the hawk was divebombing me last night

Happy Friday! This morning the chipmunks found a bunch of back up seedlings I had on the deck to replace everything they previously destroyed in the garden. I lost a bunch of bean plants, zucchini & various sunflowers. 😕 I arranged a nice bouquet though! #bloomscrolling #whatsinyourvase #gardening

🌸 🐝 Happy Thursday friends #nature #bloomscrolling #pollinatorpals #bugsky #nativeplants

Made another purchase from the local nursery last weekend! I have an entire area that I eventually want to let this Blunt Mountain Mint plant take over. It’s perfect for my area. The deer & most bugs won’t touch the foliage, but pollinators are obsessed with the blooms. #nativeplants #gardening

I hope you are a having a nice day out there. My feverfew plants are flowering! Not only are they beautiful and perfect bouquet fillers, they can also be used to prevent migraines and ease joint discomfort. #gardening #bloomscrolling #photography #herbalism ✌️💚🍵

This is what it looks like when American Painted Lady Butterfly caterpillars wrap themselves in the leaves of Pearly Everlasting, one of their larval host plants, for protection. There are many wasps flying around, trying to get in! 🌱 #nativeplants

I took this photo on Friday. It was a quiet, peaceful day on the Delaware. Today the river was lively. It was filled with people tubing, canoeing and kayaking. #nature #photography #newyork

I think this photo looks like one of those fancy, dark, Dutch paintings at the Met. #night #photography #nature #skyscape

1) I am trying to convince my wife to let me replace the foxgloves on our property with natives. She loves them. I do too. I’ve actually defended them on here many times, but I’m trying to evolve & be a better environmentalist. We didn’t plant them. They’ve been here long before we bought the place.

Happy Friday! I hope you are having a nice day out there. ✌️💚🍵 #bloomscrolling #gardening #whatsinyourvase

It’s officially mountain laurel season in the Catskills! #nativeplants #newyork #nature #bloomscrolling

Some of you might remember I direct sowed some #nativeplants last fall. Well, that was a fail. 😆 I identified every weed known to man in there, but not my plants. Anyways, I weeded & tilled the area up & planted some swamp milkweed there. It stays really moist b/c it’s right next to a tiny stream. 🌱

Finally got around to fencing off the pumpkin/butternut patch I’ve been talking about for years. I have 5 Long Island Cheese pumpkins & 3 butternut squash plants, each in 20 gallon pots. I’m going to train them across the grass. My heart would rather grow flowers but my wallet needed more produce. 🌱

First Spicebush Swallowtail visitor of the year! Officially marked in the yearly mental Pokédex. ✅ #nature #gardening #bugsky

Yesterday I was excited because I noticed some of my sunflowers started popping up. Today I went out to the garden to see that the chipmunks ate a bunch of them, so I had to replant them in pots inside. I can’t even get mad at them. They are just too damn cute haha. #nature #gardening

The cloudscape last night was 🔥 #nature #photography #nighttime #cloudscape

We added to calla lillies to the garden because of course I needed more tropical plants that I have to dig up every year and store inside. 😂 Totally worth it though! The hummingbirds are obsessed. #bloomscrolling #gardening

This yearling doe is enjoying an afternoon rest under the spruce tree. Mom has been chasing her away because she has a new baby that I haven’t seen yet. She will get to rejoin the family in a couple months or so, but she’s a little confused now. It’s ok you can hangout with me, little one. 🫂 #nature

My app keeps crashing like how Dave Mathews wants other people to crash into him. I didn’t ask for it though. I should just log off but Bluesky has its ball and chain tied to me tight. Tie me up again. I guess I’m not the king of the castle. Maybe I’m the dirty rascal? Hmmmmm. 🤔

A photo I took last night #nature #night #photography

I hope everyone is having a nice Friday! The second bouquet of the year has a little more diversity. #bloomscrolling #gardening #whatsinyourvase

A smol toad friend I met earlier. It was only about an inch and a half in size. I’m not sure if it’s a Dwarf American Toad or a juvenile American Toad. Adorable either way! #nature #toad #photography #herpetology 🐸

I’m not a spongy moth caterpillar, a fall webworm or a bagworm… I’m the Eastern Tent Caterpillar! Don’t get it twisted. 🐛 #bugsky #nature #photography

Someone needs to create an app that connects Boomers/GenX with Millennials/GenZ. Older people can share knowledge about fixing household stuff, canning etc and younger people can offer help with physical labor, technology etc. We will need to build strong communities to weather the upcoming storm. ✌️

Corn was on sale 10 for $10, so that means it’s officially corn chowder season! I am attaching my favorite recipe below if you’re interested. #foodsky #vegan #recipe 🌽🍲

Sowed a bunch of seeds and got to hang out with my pollinator pals today. It doesn’t get much better than that. I hope everyone is doing well out there! #gardening #nature #bugsky #photography #pollinatorpals

I feel bad for the local business owners. This weekend is usually highly profitable for them. A lot of people come up here to camp, canoe & hike the trails for Memorial Day, but it’s been rainy & in the 50s all weekend. It sure is beautifully vibrant though! #landscape #nature #photography #newyork

On this episode of Nick’s wholesome video recommendations we have 1 minute and 45 seconds of kitten and dandelion bliss from creator GAKHED for those who need it. 🥹 #cats #nature #dandelion #video youtu.be/1VNgZtVfD-4?...

I sat along the bank of the brook during the twilight hours. I focused my mind on the sound of the water crashing against the rocks. The warblers called to each other and the crickets began to sing their song. Just for a moment I found some inner peace. #nature #landscape #photography ✌️💚🍵

Had a friend suggest I start a YouTube channel. I said you mean like MIGardener, Epic Gardener, Millennial Gardener & James Prigioni? Nah, I think the world has enough millennial, dude gardening shows. I would totally watch an @herbygardens.bsky.social or @gardeningkristi.bsky.social show though! 🌱

Guest: Do you have any libations? Me: No, but we do have a bunch of Lithobates. #nature #herpetology #night #photography
