Nose to Nose with Nature in Michigan by Bill Lentz


By The Center for Michigan - December 18, 2007

Frog

Michigan's magic is the magic of nature. Spending hours capturing and getting close looks at frogs in my grandfather's northern Michigan pond was a favorite pastime of my cousins and mine. Thirty years later our children do the same with the offspring of those old frogs, while we "old frogs" sit and enjoy! Getting nose to nose with nature, like my son in the photo, is what I hope Michigan's future holds. The pure delight in holding a frog up close is something that Michigan provided me, my friends, and my children with. Preserving this simple act can create a love of and an interest in all things natural and all things Michigan.
