Norm had a baby brownie camera he carried in his flack jacket.  The photos were taken on the front lines during the Korean War.  He was there at a historic time and this is his eye witness account.

These days he enjoys fishing.  He will be inducted into the Michigan Environmental Hall of Fame on April 10, 7 p.m. at the Grand Rapids Michigan Gerald R. Ford Museum for his work in improving the environment.

Norm spearheaded the drive to ban DDT in our town and in Michigan and then the ban went nationwide. The American bald eagle was nearly wiped out due to DDT that got into the food pyramids.  He has helped, not only eagles, but all living things in his endeavors.

Frozen Niagara Falls

In 1911 Niagara Falls froze. They are frozen again.

Last night it was so cold that I wondered how the birds and animals outdoors could survive, yet the nuthatches, woodpeckers, chickadees and many other birds were refueling at our bird feeder this morning.  This cold spell has broken records.

It has been below zero F in many areas around the Great Lakes.  The link above shows Niagara Falls at the American side.

This is my watercolor of a nuthatch.
