In 2016 I’m doing a 365 Nature project. Each day of the year I will post something here about nature. It may be any format, a photo, video, audio, sketch or entry from my nature journal. It could be a written piece. Each day I will connect to nature in some way and share it here by the end of that day. You can keep up-to-date by subscribing to the RSS feed or be notified by email. See all the 365 Nature posts.


It’s the season for storms here in Seattle. I shared some dramatic stormy skies on both Day 16 and Day 18 and today as I drove home from the Arboretum I encountered perhaps the most beautiful skies yet this month. Lake Washington was rough and choppy because there was a heavy breeze and the skies were full of dark storm clouds, but the sun was just starting to break through, casting a stunning reflection on the water’s surface. I had to stop and take a couple of videos and photos because I knew the clouds wouldn’t last.
