Spring is here! I can't wait to get out on the water but until then I've collected up this week's best posts to feed my addiction. Grab a coffee and enjoy a little outdoor time!
When @jessicaoutside and her husband, Ben, suddenly moved to Canada they never looked back. The Canadian Rockies are beautiful and another one of my dream kayak trip locations. @jessicaoutside shares some fantastic shots and a few tips for her favourite locations. The main one being: Get there early!
@advanticle has written an excellent series to help new campers' enjoy their experience. Going out unprepared makes for a miserable trip. It's obvious that @advanticle has some serious experience camping which makes his advice valuable. If you're planning a trip don't miss this series.
I've spent some time thinking about our waterways and what affects them. Until I read this post by @sir-lionel I had never considered acoustic pollution. It makes sense when you think about it. Consider the marine life that uses sound for location and communication. Thanks for bringing this to our attention @sir-lionel.
Monarch Butterflies are plentiful in Canada so I'd never really thought about their habits until I woke one morning to find a tree outside our trailer, on Lake Erie, just dripping with them. @kansuze has written a post which beautifully describes the Monarch migration and how we've been able to track them.
Starlings in East Africa are far more beautiful than the ones introduced to North America by the Europeans many generations ago. @timspawls has taken some amazing pictures showcasing the striking features of these "exotic" birds.
If you've ever dreamed of taking a trip on the Alaska Marine Highway @exploretraveler's post will make you want to all the more! I really enjoyed reading this post and the photos are awesome!
Until next time friends...
