Ascension Outdoors Descends on Dularge!
A recent phone call from my fishing buddy, Lyle Johnson, resulted in plans for filming a little fishing trip for the recently reinstated outdoors show “Ascension Outdoors”, co-hosted by Lyle and his brother-in-law, Goosie Guice. I’m not sure why they call him Goosie, but it might have something to do with the fact that he was a championship duck caller at one time. Heck, he might still be for all I know.

Friday Adventure!
Today, Termite and I spent about 10 hours on the water exploring and just enjoying a beautiful day. We made a huge loop starting at our house and going up to Falgout Canal to Decade to Mechant and home by way of lower Bayou Dularge! On the way, we fished here and there with not…

How long IS that thing?
One good reason not to check for eggs at night . . . a 5 foot 9 inch reason
Winter Delights
I was so excited about and inspired by the appearance of the great horned owl nesting in the oak tree at Camp Dularge last weekend, that I decided to take photos of the flowers that are still blooming despite temperatures that have dropped close to freezing a couple times already.
Change is a-coming . . .
Not only are we moving back to our home, but this blog is about to get a couple changes of its own. It has been suggested to me by others that I might try adding my business endeavors to my blog. I did not do that from the beginning, since this blog was started for…

The hummers are here.
The spring bird migration is fast approaching. I hope to get some photos of my guests as they pass through on their way to points northward. Meanwhile, I’ll enjoy the hummers. PS While sitting on the porch, watching the hummers, my son and I watched a gorgeous pileated woodpecker eating on one of our trees,…
Creepy! But, it’s a good photo.
Food Chain. Momma Nature’s sacred circle of life.
I luv the coming autumn season when spider webs dripping jewels of dew sparkles in the early morning sun.
So the banana spiders are out already? Must be time for fall!
Yes, Kim, isn’t it amazing? One morning this week I walked outside to the absence of humidity and the sky had a green aura like after a hurricane. I sensed the earth had tilted slightly; and now sunrise is after 6 a.m., not before.
Ooooh, I know they are necessary in the great scheme of things – but I HATE spiders! My sympathies are all with the locust. They have such a short life anyway, seems terrible to shorten it further!
I look forward to the first song of the cicada high in the live oak trees signaling the onslaught of summer; and then before you know it, the banana spider webs extend between the branches of the same oak trees, trapping the beautiful cicadas for food.
Noisy little buggers !!
One of my lovely memories of my indoor Siamese centers around a locust. She was sitting on the second floor balcony (which fronted a small, tree-lined creek) outside the kitchen, when she suddenly darted back in. You could almost hear her saying, “See, Momma, I told you I could catch a bird!” A locust had literally flown head first into her mouth and its wings were flapping on each side of her jaws. She was so upset with me when I took it away and released it!
Great story, Joan!
