Bees are benevolent little workers who pollinate and beautify the blooms of the world. An integral part of the landscape, they burrow their furry yellow and black backs into the luscious center of flowers, gather nectar and then cross-pollinate other flowers.

In May of 2011 gray wolves were taken off of the endangered species list. This is the first time in history that the US Congress has taken this sort of action. The wolf is an apex predator, and has expanded into only small fractions of what had been its historical range over the last two [...]
If you wanted to read about my photography goals for 2019... I don't know about you, but I'm sick and tired when it comes to making goals every year and not reaching them.
