These few photos could be the last ones I post on The Daily Bucket using my trusty and faithful old Nikon Coolpix L830 camera. My new Nikon B600 should be here any day now. When it comes I’ll be putting my faithful companion “out to pasture”, up on my closet shelf. I’ve taken hundreds (thousands?) of photos with Old Faithful, but it is showing it’s age a bit with stripped-out threads where a monopod/tripod would attach and the shutter button often fails to operate.
The Daily Bucket is a nature refuge. We amicably discuss animals, weather, climate, soil, plants, waters and note life’s patterns.
We invite you to note what you are seeing around you in your own part of the world, and to share your observations in the comments below.
Each note is a record that we can refer to in the future as we try to understand the phenological patterns that are quietly unwinding around us. To have the Daily Bucket in your Activity Stream, visit Backyard Science’s profile page and click on Follow.

Flowers, for color.
