Day by day photos from the year’s third
quarter begin here –
This natural
world we enjoy is a dynamic system yet it operates in a reasonably ordered manner, and we live in what we
hope is an organized society. Just as in the natural world where species are
interdependent, we humans are interdependent; we depend on others for things we cannot do ourselves, and they depend on us in the same way.
Unfortunately, wishful thinking has trumped science and common sense for those who think they should be free to do whatever they want, no matter how foolish. But freedom can go only as far as it impacts the freedom, or lives, of others. It’s many people’s attitude of “I've got a right to ...” that has led them to act irresponsibly and help lead our country into the crisis, now turned into a catastrophe, in which the nation finds itself as the year’s third quarter ends.

COVID-19 has revealed the gap between what the United States has promised to its citizens and what it has delivered. Without wise leadership this land of ours has yielded to
COVID-19. Wear a Mask!

Thanks for the pleasant diversion. I heartily agree with your concluding statements.
Hello
Beautiful nature and wildlife photography. I agree with your statements too, we need wise leadership. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care and Enjoy your day! Happy weekend!
It's a mess, isn't it?
I'm happy to be out in nature, too.
Lovely photos.
Oh my! You are an amazing photographer and we've been treated to quite an array of your nature photos. Love the green frog...with the mustache! lol And there are so many different bugs! The Warbler was a gorgeous photo too! SO many! Thanks for sharing! Enjoy your weekend!
What a wonderful natural world with you, I was very happy to see so much. I am also outdoors a lot.
I nod to your contribution to this, even when I'm in Germany, it's so confused, even with us it means wearing masks!
Have a god weekend, Elke
Gorgeous photos. Thank you.
Wow...great photos. The photo of the eagle is really breathtaking Woody. I love that box turtle and the falls too. Again, wow.
What an splendid catalog of nature's amazing and beautiful plants and creatures, and all so beautifully photographed! And thanks, too, for your concluding statement. So much sadness would have been prevented if similar words of admonition had come from our nation's leaders.
