Here are some photographs I took at the Nature Journaling Workshops I led last weekend at our beautiful Hatcher Gardens. I taught them to make lists, write poems, draw pictures, and/or write descriptions of what they saw. Friday was the adult workshop, Saturday was for kids 12 and under. This is such a great activity for any age! Please email me if you would like to discuss a workshop in your town.
The adults spread out so much I couldn't find everyone, although these three were easy!
Female Downy Woodpecker who flew right in front of me, and landed on this tree. I believe she wanted to be photographed.
Sweet Lilly!
Busy Alexander, who loved bugs of all kinds!
Bella exudes happiness!
With some encouragement, Charlie decided at the last minute to join the workshop (with his sister, Bella). He had a great time!
Lilly is a serious journal keeper.
Bella and Lilly - Friends!
Busyboy!
Charlie's Honeysuckle Poem
Bella's great list of what we saw!
Charlie said, "This thing in the pond looked like half fish, half squid!" I promised to look it up in my field guides. Stay tuned. :)

Great to get kids out there enjoying nature. And glad to find someone who actually teaches journaling. I've journaled for several decades now and find it very helpful.
