    There’s something magical about the outdoors

    Welcome to Great Lakes Wildlife Journal

    Chipmunk on forest floor in Michigan

    Hi, I’m Aimee and if you know me, you know I have a deep love for all things wild. Birds, frogs, turtles, and just about any creature that calls nature home hold a special place in my heart.

    One of the most beautiful things about living in Michigan is the incredible variety of wildlife that surrounds us. From thick forests and sandy dunes to tranquil wetlands and stunning lakeshores, each landscape offers a chance to encounter something new and wild.

    Why I Created Great Lakes Wildlife Journal

    This space is my little corner of the internet where I can share stories from the field, personal reflections, helpful photography tips, and ways we can all give back to the wild places and creatures we love. My hope is that through these posts, you’ll feel inspired to explore more, observe more, and maybe even pick up a camera of your own.

    What You’ll Find Here

    Great Lakes Wildlife Journal will cover topics like:

    • The secret lives of migrating birds
    • Wildlife to watch for as the seasons change
    • Tips for capturing stunning wildlife photos—no matter what kind of camera you use
    • Conservation efforts and simple ways to support your local animals and habitats

    Whether you’re a seasoned birder, a weekend trail wanderer, or someone who simply enjoys watching wildlife from your window, there’s something here for you.
