Carnets naturalistes en Bourgogne du Sud : Frédéric Tillier's observations of Nature surrounding us with photos, drawings and watercolors (in French language).
I am rediscovering the region where I spent my childhood with Frédéric's notes.
Le jardin de Lucie : (in French language) We sometimes find wonderful things while searching information on the Internet. I have immediately loved "le Jardin de Lucie". I had the feeling to find a vision of naturalist activities very close to mine. But what majesty in the way it is done!!!
Macros pictures, with a very nice light and always very sharp, are used as a support for very precise and accurate naturalist comments. In addition some pictures are highlighted with arrows or colour markings which are always welcome. This blog is a good example showing that you can combine naturalist and beautiful pictures.
I have noticed, after usage, that the index built as a "cloud of keywords" is finally very efficient.
I will go on regularly visiting "le Jardin de Lucie" where, like in my garden, aphids will not receive a rain of insecticide products (they already have so many predators). And like my garden too, Lucie's one has no precise limits as you can see there Northern Gannets diving down in Gaspésie!
