Happy Love Your Mother Earth Day!


Seems like there are a lot of ways to get involved this year  ... although honestly don't cha think everyday should be earth day? Whether you are using a reusable bag, planting a tree, or switching out old light bulbs for more energy efficient models... it's so easy to do something to help clean up this little planet we call home.
 I especially like that this year more corporations are getting involved like Starbucks (bring a mug get some free coffee), Caribou, Old Navy and Lowes (free Trees)! (click the link below to get more deets)


If nothing else get out into nature. After all fresh air never hurt anyone..... at least not that I've heard.
These pictures were taken on a hike over at the Collins Sanctuary Nature Trail near the Audubon Society (Portland).



Inhale ... Exhale .... Ahhhhh



The Audubon Society of Portland has a volunteer day on April 23rd so if you're in the Portland area this is a beautiful place to volunteer or sponsor Finnegan the Falcon (a beautiful falcon with a deformed foot)
