Moss party
Marty’s photo of the day #3633: I live in the Bitterroot Valley of Montana. Protected on either side by mountains, the valley is in the state’s banana belt. Having lived in the same house since 1996, I’m quite aware of how the area has been affected by climate change. It seems that every year I […]
Peacock vs. . .

Orangutans vs Republicans
Marty’s photo of the day #3610: While on the island of Borneo, I watched two baby orangutans comfort each other, when they wandered too far from the orangutan rehabilitation facility and became lost in the dark. Meanwhile, in Montana, our Republican governor and legislature have passed bills taking away women’s rights, taking away trans rights, […]
Montana GOP: Sic the dogs on ’em
Marty’s photo of the day #3605: This year, with Republicans holding overwhelming power in every Montana state office, I wasn’t as active about speaking out against their actions as I have in the past. That’s because of the helplessness of knowing these cruel, proudly-Christian people were going to do whatever they damn well pleased, and […]

The Wild West
Marty’s photo of the day #3531: One of the cool things about living in Montana is that once you get off the beaten path, it’s fairly common to find old abandon buildings from when the state was still part of the “Wild West.” I don’t remember where I found this one. I think it was […]
Spring geese
Marty’s photo of the day #3520: Here’s a photo for anyone eager for spring. (Canada geese, photographed in the Bitterroot Valley of Montana)
The Tree House
Marty’s photo of the day #3516: I can’t say that winter is my favorite season, but if we’re going to have winter—let’s have it! None of that 37 degrees and brown crap. Therefore I’m pleased that 13 degrees and a foot of snow have arrived to our home in Montana. I enjoyed an early morning […]
Follow me!
Marty’s photo of the day #3513: I photographed this killdeer last year in western Montana. The bird was busy, leading me away from her nest.

The old uncle owl-sitter
Marty’s photo of the day #3496: Here’s another photo from the Bitterroot Valley of Montana. This is a very large juvenile long-eared owl. The mother was out hunting, but fortunately an old uncle was nearby to babysit the youngster.

Montana: bad and good
Marty’s photo of the day #3449: Montana may be a red state, with a backward population that elected a body-slammer for governor, voted for a crybaby narcissist for president, and aggravated the COVID-19 pandemic by believing in conspiracy theories, but when it comes to pure natural beauty the state is hard to beat. I took […]
