Controlled Burns

Walking through a couple of our local forest preserves last week, The Hubbs and I lucked into some interesting scenery.  Apparently, this is the time of year to do controlled burns in order to rejuvenate the landscape.

I also have to admit that I was surprised by the amount of wildlife we saw during the burn.  Here are a few of my favorite pics from the day...enjoy!

Oh, and don't forget: these are mine.  I'm very possessive, and the promise to poop on your foot if you steal them is very real.  Very real, indeed.
