Looking Up
Marty’s photo of the day #4886: For this photo, I am in the rainforest on the island of Borneo, standing inside an old strangler fig, with my camera pointed straight up.
Venezuelan Troupial
Marty’s photo of the day #4885: This is a Venezuelan troupial, photographed last year in Bonaire. As the name suggests, the are native to Venezuela. Apparently they were introduced to the island in 1973, when a local friar released some there.
My Dog Gets Credit For This One
Marty’s photo of the day #4884: Nellie gets credit for spotting this great horned owl. The owl is currently sitting right outside my writing room window. Nellie barked at first, but now that the owl is asleep, she is just staring at it with an occasional low growl. I think the owl has settled in […]
Tiny Amazon Rainforest Frog
Marty’s photo of the day #4883: I photographed this tiny frog in the Amazon Rainforest of Peru. The closest ID I could find is a Luscombe’s rain frog, but I’m not positive it is correct.
The Least Exotic Animal
Marty’s photo of the day #4882: Deb and I have two exotic trips coming up. In preparation, yesterday I decided to clean and test my cameras and lenses. I stepped outside and photographed just about the least exotic wild animal on the planet: a squirrel. I intended to examine the photo and delete it. Then […]

The Bitter Bitterroot Valley
Marty’s photo of the day #4875: This photo is from a hike along the Bitterroot River in the Bitterroot Valley of Montana earlier this week. As beautiful as this scene is, 69 percent of the people in the valley voted for Trump—meaning they are bitter about anyone who isn’t straight, bitter about anyone who isn’t […]
Walking on Water
Marty’s photo of the day #4874: I named Nellie after the “Holy Smokin’ Hot Nellie,” in my first novel, Time Is Irreverent. The real Nellie was so excited about playing in the Bitterroot River yesterday that she outdid the fictional Nellie. She walked on water! And look at those stunning fall colors.
The Dedicated Hard-Working Kind of People that Every Country Needs
Marty’s photo of the day #4873: Whenever I go to Spokane, breakfast at Frank’s Diner (an old railroad car) is on my list. When Deb and I showed up, the morning after the Garbage concert, the wait to get a seat was 30-45 minutes. We waited and were awarded two stools at the end of […]

Still More Icebergs
Marty’s photo of the day #4870: Eventually, I’m going to run out of Antarctica iceberg photos. But not yet. I haven’t posted this one before.
