Mallard pair on a log 3/10

Published by authorlaurablog

I'm a reading specialist and award winning educator from Chicago. While living in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado for nine years, I spent time hiking on the trails with my Goldendoodle Charlie and friends, writing, working in a literacy program at the Boulder Public Library, and mentoring writers and teachers. I love visiting schools. My books combine STEM and Kindness. "Aliana Reaches for the Moon" a picture book that draws inspiration from the moon and the curiosity of children, inviting children to be creative, explore, and experiment. "An Accidental Hero: A Mostly True Wombat Story" a picture book told in the form of a newscast which skillfully balances the serious subject of forest fires with compassion and humor to help children navigate this important topic through the real events of 2020. I moved to Northern New Jersey in 2025 and am working on new projects.

    1. Thanks! They were swimming when I first arrived. Then together they climbed up and stayed on that log for a long while cleaning themselves. There were turtles on a different log that I’d never seen before. It’s definitely spring here!

    1. Thank you, Donna. I love catching them and their reflection in the same shot. I took some video too but I can’t share that on the blog for space reasons. I’ll probably share on my other socials.
