1.  There are a couple different reasons I want to nature journal. First, I’ve recently moved to Central Florida, from southern Indiana, so much of the habitats and wildlife is new to, and i think journaling will be a helpful tool to learn more deeply about my new home. Second, I love love love nature illustrations from the 19th and early 20th century, and i think it would be fun to create my own. 2.l really liked Holly’s monthly journal pages as well as Shayna’s box style journal. We recently started camping regularly and i think it would be great to keep a journal of discoveries while camping. Sort of like a “nature’s guest book” for our camper 😀   3. I really like seasons journals where you document a place or specimen in each season on the same page.   I like to paint some of my nature photographs in miniature sometimes, it helps me capture the feelings of the moment than when i took the original photo.    This is a painting i did from a photograph taken on a sunrise hike to see cockaded woodpeckers.
