A kind of stillness the river keeps for itself.

Franklin Hotel — 1903 to 2025 | A Farewell to Strawberry Point’s Landmark https://t.co/WSVvr8o2cL via @YouTube

The Franklin Hotel has stood on Strawberry Point’s corner since 1903. This fall, its lights fade: the Franklin will close in October 2025. Tonight it still keeps watch. #FranklinHotel #StrawberryPoint #IowaHistory #HistoricHotel #FarewellFranklin #ClosingOctober2025

https://t.co/0WZUrcfkgs Rainy day serenade when it was just me and the birds for a little while at a local park. Grateful to have shared a moment with this stunning Yellow Warbler! Its bright yellow feathers shone like a ray of sunshine on a drizzly day.

https://t.co/qljCjfbg7L Meet the king of Iowa's bird population - this stunning male Eastern Goldfinch is a sight to behold!

As Iowa's officia state bird since 1933, this beautiful bird is a treasure for our state.

https://t.co/UWew5aKm6S Recognition of a pair of Baltimore Orioles (male on the left) was almost immediate as their melodic songs flowed into the Jeep's open windows along a gravel road near McGregor. Getting the couple to hold still long enough for a photos was another thing

https://t.co/mReixEgj20 Spotted this gorgeous Yellow-rumped Warbler in Dubuque County, Iowa! These little migrants breed in the boreal forests of Canada and the northern U.S. each summer, then head south to the Gulf Coast, Central America, and the Caribbean for the winter.

https://t.co/RPoAzPRmgS April evenings don’t get much better than this! 🌅✨ Caught the sky melting into shades of pink and gold over the Volga River Valley south of Elkader—and it felt like nature’s own light show. 😍🌾

https://t.co/kmwelCi3cO An antique tractor tucked away in the brush along the edge of the woods in Dubuque County! 🌲🚜 She’s a little moss‑kissed and vine‑wrapped, but with some TLC I bet she’ll roar back to life in no time. 💚✨
