Blue Mound State Park

Blue Mound State Park

Between errands I had the urge to just drive. Five miles later I was taking this photo of Blue Mound State Park, specifically this farm just below Blue Mound. I'm not sure who own it but I'll bet it's very peaceful living there. All in all, it was the quickest photo sojourn I've taken...

Blue Mound State Park is a state park of Wisconsin, USA, located atop the largest hill in the southern half of the state, near the village of Blue Mounds. The 1,153-acre (467 ha) park features a pair of observation towers affording views of the Wisconsin River valley and Baraboo Range to the north, the mounds, buttes, and rolling forests of the Driftless Area to the south and west, and the young glacial plains and city of Madison to the east.

Karmaphala American Crow

After yesterday's photo of the iron hawk under an oak (check my feed) I coincidentally got one of an American Crow today. I was getting out of the car, camera in hand when I heard it call out from the walnut tree in our yard. I reconfigured my camera to try capturing it and stepped into the driveway already camera to my face. I didn't spot it at first as there was another tree between us. I no sooner focused on it when it launched into the air.
