Happy Earth Day! Enjoy your day out and about ~ go for a walk, use cloth shopping bags, pick up garbage, plant a tree or a butterfly garden, share nature photos, or be like this goose and protect mamas sitting on a nest. #cherylajohnson #lifeonthesunrisechannel #earthday
This turtle pic is definitely a keeper! As you can see, the shell of this one is peeling/shedding. It's a normal process to shed the outer plates/scutes to make room for new growth. Follow my fb page Life on the Sunrise Channel for more. #cherylajohnson #lifeonthesunrisechannel

Another Good Listen ~ 2026 The labor movement. The 1913 copper mine strike in Calument, Michigan. Immigrants working underground. And Annie Clements fighting for the men to receive a fair wage, shorter work days, and banning the 'widow maker' one-man drill. #audiobookrecommendation #audiobook

Another Good Listen ~ 2026 A creative storytelling contest pitting J, who loves to draw, against K, who loves to write. A middle-grade finalist in the Audie Awards this year. #audiobookrecommendation #audiobook

WOW! Love the new camera! I always have trouble remembering the name of this Red-bellied Woodpecker. The faint red blush on the lower belly is usually hard to see, but if you look closely, you'll see it. #cherylajohnson #lifeonthesunrisechannel #naturephotography #redbelliedwoodpecker
A group of grackles is called a plague. Turn your volume all the way up to hear the plague across the channel. I opened the slider and couldn’t believe the racket! #cherylajohnson #lifeonthesunrisechannel #naturephotography #commongrackle
A foggy start to the day. The farther down the channel, the murkier it becomes. I found a large lone leaf in the yard, which I switched to black and white to fit the mood. If you love nature, follow my fb page Life on the Sunrise Channel. #lifeonthesunrisechannel #naturephotography
Another Good Listen ~ 2026 Disease. Poverty. And healthcare inequities that contribute to over a million TB deaths a year. #audiobookrecommendation #audiobook #everythingistuberculosis
Another Good Listen ~ 2026 A death. A mystery. And a love story. I absolutely love starting a new audiobook and hearing Julia Whelan's voice! #audiobookrecommendation #audiobooks #thenightwelosthim
