First off, you should meed Gladly, named after Gladly the Cross-Eyed Bear. (If you want the full story on that name, email me and I will send you the whole joke). Gladly was in our camp one day. I apologize if Gladly is not too clear but my camera did not have an auto compensate button for "scared s***less"; nor would he take posing directions to improve the light.
This is what you do when you see a bear (after taking photos of the bear, of course). You pose for photos with the pots and pans you are going to bang together to scare the bear off.
This squirrel came to do the dishes, I guess, because we had already eaten dinner. Actually we had done the dishes too, but we didn't tell him that.
On one of our day trips we stopped in a we-thought-unoccupied campsite. This snake was having dinner. A frog. When I first saw him he had both frog legs still sticking out of his mouth. I asked him to hold the pose, but as you see, he swallowed before I could get the camera.
And of course, no trip to the Boundary Waters is complete without seeing a moose. Here is a cow and calf walking along our Frost Lake beach. We saw at least 7 on this trip. Once again I apologize for not having a better pose of the moose family... but the wildlife don't like you to get that close. I guess that's why they call them wild.
My favorite of all the wildlife are the loons. Here is a mother and baby (on her back) swimming not far from their nest. Their music is the most varied and beautiful sound you will hear anywhere on earth.
Among other wildlife we saw were lots of frogs, beavers, several eagles, osprey, ravens, lots more loons, and the ever so hungry mosquitos and biting flies (scratch, scratch). So, back to the Onarock home page.
