Sure this maybe an old vest but she’s a good vest and has been in it for the long haul with all of my other tools. My vest is essential as it holds many of the things I need from magnifying glasses, test tubes, petri dishes, rocks and fossils I find and even on occasion some of my camera gear. It is vital to have pockets. It can be a gift and a curse. Especially if you forget which pocket you put that item you so desperately need in. I am at times my own glorified Kangaroo. This image was taken during the 2020 BioBlitz during Covid-19. It was a hard time and I never felt so lonely during a BioBlitz. Yet, my family was there for me to help out. However, my grandmother who loved doing these with me was no longer around. It was at this time I knew that “Ol Trusty” still held that memory. I wear this vest all the time even on days when I am not hiking. I often get mistaken for a scout (never was a scout). I just wear it in remembrance of my grandmother but even further as a conversation starter and with all the patches one could put on it; it helps folks make more memories finding new places to go. Some folks will even share their memories of the place I have been and that adds to the sense of community. This is why I call my vest “Ol Trusty” she carries all of my tools and I can rely on her that way, I trust her to bring me peace and comfort, and I trust her to hold the memories that I make and that people share with me. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/b0e77fc5-11f4-4ff0-a68c-efa26739a0d8/493057910_3257531047720683_4933578010397718551_n.jpg Stories of Adventure - The Story of “Ol’ Trusty” - Make it stand out Another thing about “Ol Trusty” that makes her so special is that she is a trailblazer along for every ride so far. She has seen quite a few things including the infamous and famous. Here we are at the Field Museum; my aunt took this image as we stand next to the Lions of Tsavo which inspired the movie The Ghost and the Darkness which was based on the true story about Col. John Patterson as he was tasked to build a bridge over the River Tsavo but the bridge story took a turn when two mane-less lions began to attack people at the camp. These are the lions that spread all of that chaos. As a museum studies minor and a naturalist this was a pilgrimage for sure. I love the Field Museum and seeing these for the first time in my life blew my mind. I was in the 7th grade when I read an excerpt of this situation in a book on animal attacks. I learned about this and the Shark Attacks of 1916. It lead me to watching movies like Jaws and The Ghost and the Darkness and separate the facts from the fiction. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/1f78a778-9c4f-4844-b816-644cac5fc8ed/455108226_3002290963244694_4233073217168987381_n.jpg Stories of Adventure - The Story of “Ol’ Trusty” - And of course no trip to the Field Museum in Chicago is complete without seeing her royal majesty Tyrannosaurus Rex Sue. This was a fun trip for sure and brought the little boy out in me something fierce. As a child I grew up going bonkers for dinosaurs. I wanted so much to be a roving paleontologist. As a naturalist in my adult manhood I still love dinosaurs. Never missed a Jurassic Park movie, played the games, read both Michael Crichton novels. I have seen every Jurassic World movie too. I was born in 1994 but I was able to catch all of those movies on the rebound and watched the first one when it came out in 3-D in 2014 before the first Jurassic World hit theaters. As a little kid though my intro to Dinosaurs was documentaries and Don Bluth’s The Land Before Time. 31 years in and I am still a raving dinosaur lunatic among adding all of the bugs, birds and whatever else I can add to that list. I am a jack-of-all-nerd. Just being next to Sue’s original skull is amazing. The one on the big standing model is not the real skull. If this lady could talk; she’d have a very interesting story to tell. I do often say that bones and rocks do talk. Each one holds clues to how they formed. Where they are from, what time period, what age, and how they died or got worn down. So yes, rocks and fossils do talk; in a manner of perspective of course. Yet, if they had words as they say “straight out of the mouth of babes” then yes the story could be a lot more interesting for sure. And of course no trip to the Field Museum in Chicago is never complete without seeing her royal highness Tyrannosaurus Sue. This was a dream given form for me as https://www.zacharychapmannaturephotography.com/home daily 1.0 2025-11-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/af652dc0-f3c5-40da-a156-49a271bbfeae/Zach-cutout.png https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/1c6a4fc3-4e2c-478c-a7a3-dc71873621ee/135469116_1989476824526118_6656201496458824091_n.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/0c54af3b-72d6-4c56-8100-6ed9a1e9f820/467128316_3109966209143835_6793572710128886812_n.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/a9fff1c2-b163-43e1-a32d-8643662b161d/125484053_1947265062080628_9119071358509086421_n.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/380d875d-712f-42be-836c-9a2a92face28/469113889_972914001532372_5066459789139640394_n.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/916e43df-7062-4e1f-b58a-20379832ebdd/133685919_1983212601819207_1743133474672554512_n.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/7dcc5817-4217-4225-a112-a57221071a7b/IMG_0118.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/1f98a55c-a8d7-4773-bd0d-f22a1b39b619/IMG_3200.JPG https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/241a91d9-f98d-4da5-9f6f-10fe4cc5e4cb/Photo_2025-11-13_234619.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/878a5836-4512-4914-b8ce-9373dc0b56f4/515437630_3411408465666273_6995093246875998807_n.jpg https://www.zacharychapmannaturephotography.com/contact daily 0.75 2025-11-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/ca281dfa-65cd-4a31-82a0-6acc66479759/502375543_3325348427605611_5197492251553070826_n.jpg https://www.zacharychapmannaturephotography.com/new-page daily 0.75 2025-11-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/dc174bf4-02e0-4018-9259-5205c654587c/574358283_3471615026312283_6119331615398144312_n.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/bd9bf8e0-c270-4fb0-a1a0-f211806adda3/508720421_3324979977642456_5708994251434693255_n+%281%29.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/a9de2e34-3492-4d3e-8188-f933a18b584c/488642040_3235145966625858_8188985636046768521_n.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/40d272db-0472-4044-838d-e72828fc5352/464212535_3081648595308930_2615562193479733579_n.jpg https://www.zacharychapmannaturephotography.com/images-and-projects daily 0.75 2026-02-25 https://www.zacharychapmannaturephotography.com/images-and-projects/sunset-a-collection-of-reflections monthly 0.5 2026-02-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/f4c7a88c-7b8a-4daa-ab09-15a872da7819/629433480_3576251529181965_8933226974341478520_n.jpg Nature Photography Archive - Sunset: a collection of reflections Untiled Sunset #1 Arlington Tx, Richard Simpson Park February, 9 2026 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/b3fff8ea-6430-4f86-a381-5bd9fb210360/631308138_3576252219181896_4905363045743866838_n.jpg Nature Photography Archive - Sunset: a collection of reflections Untitled Sunset #2 Arlington Tx, Bowman Springs Park, Feb 9, 2026 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/a6825aa3-ed1d-4c75-8515-7b31268f9e01/634674965_3583719258435192_1132442063654292830_n.jpg Nature Photography Archive - Sunset: a collection of reflections Untitled Sunset #3 Arlington Tx, Bowman Springs Park, February 14, 2026 (After the storm with God rays and clouds) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/cf2bd5d0-9b4e-4e8f-8048-9659e76889bd/641386426_3593202734153511_6678635599120981470_n+%281%29.jpg Nature Photography Archive - Sunset: a collection of reflections Sunset Los Colinas #1 On the Drive Home back to Arlington.

The image here is not in a natural setting; as it was taken at River Legacy Living Science Center. This is a staged shot where I used lava rocks, fake foliage. There is one male (with the Knobs on the head) and one female (the smoother one) The male holds the female in a gentle caress (or so it does seem). Not as creepy as it is oddly adorable. This happened by accident but in the immortal words of Bob Ross they are "Happy Accidents". 11x7 Digital Print, River Legacy Arlington TX, Winter 2024 Taken for my macro photography show on macro photography (Never Used in Show) but was used for their Valentines Day posts) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/30fc7661-5289-48cf-931d-2787a2d44205/Mid-Summer+Night%27s+Buzzy+Screamer.jpg Nature Photography Archive - The Macro Zone "Mid-summer's Night Buzzy Screamer" A depiction of a Resh Cicada (Megatibicen resh) Landed on my headset as I was photographing insects in my backyard listening to my tunes. Transported to a stick I took a shot of it with the moon out of focus making it look as if it was on a natural tree branch.

This was one of the River Legacy living species used in education programs. I was challenged to get a portrait shot and was able to get this face. As a shock this looked very much like a bulldog.

This was another shot I took at River Legacy during the summer of 2024 just before going to Indiana to participate in the Bug Shot work shop that was happening in August. This is one of my favorite images of this species of grasshopper. Sometimes insects can look rather scary but with the right lighting they can look amazing and less so. It is all about the perspective that you give your subject and the light. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/07bffbf6-1219-420f-a98b-172d33a12331/555528955_3429660380507748_2580171599503388168_n.jpg Nature Photography Archive - The Macro Zone "Caterpillars Munch" Gulf Fritillary Caterpillars (Dione vanillae) are one of the most common butterflies I see every summer. These here were taken at the University of Texas at Arlington when I was photographing around campus one day. There was a bush in front of the University Hall building. There was a vine of Passion Vine (Passiflora lutea) this is the Yellow Passion Vine but they also feed on the big purple passion vine. These are one of the Brush foot Butterflies. Macro photography is a process like all art and one should trust any process. I love getting these images of creatures often hidden from plain sight as they go about their business unnoticed. Like a spy looking at the secret lives of insects. Not many people observe the insects about their daily walks but I do.

This is an usual observation due to the fact it's out of the water and not near any ephemeral ponds or the creek (the creek was on the other side but still quite a way off.) This was taken this year Jan, 22, 2026. It has been very warm and mild most winter. This was just a couple of days before the ice storm we had here in the DFW area. It was nice and warm-ish but still a small chill in the air. Not sure why this guy was out and about. I have spent a lot of time around dragonflies and odonates as a whole and never made an account like this to record. You can see something a million times and still find something new. This is very true to my field as a photographer and an over all naturalist. https://www.zacharychapmannaturephotography.com/images-and-projects/project-two-ky966-kjhxt monthly 0.5 2026-02-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/a08cc01d-af90-4325-aaa2-3f4f3bcec8de/472864810_3153159254824530_3608712048057386516_n.jpg Nature Photography Archive - Birding and Migration "Gulls in a row" Winter 2024 Here we see a group of Ring-billed Gulls of various stages. The more spotted ones are just starting out their migration. Over time they lose their spots. We call the ones with many spots "first year" migrants. These are a constant at Bowman Springs Park. I love watching them on any given cold winter's day. They normally come about mid November some years. They show up with American White Pelicans and the Double-Crested Cormorants that arrive for the migration. In winter they are here to feed and have their own vacation. Here we see a group lined up on the pier railing. They often sit like this; waiting for tidbits or something to cause them to move. I love this line of birds as you see the vanishing point and the study of line. A person blurred in the background with the focus on the line of "seabirds". I use the term Sea Gull very lightly as not all gulls are sea faring at times. There are many gulls in Texas and some are hard to ID. I know this one very well; it is the one I can pick out of a line up for it is one of the few that venture this far. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/5d5f81fa-0ae6-4044-a67e-c57add3e56f6/631062011_3576262725847512_3595766875501416024_n+%281%29.jpg Nature Photography Archive - Birding and Migration Great Egret with Fresh Caught Fish The Sound at North Lake, Coppell TX, February 9, 2026 I come here to bird often. With my new lens in tow I was able to get a few new photos on my day's walk. I saw this one on my way back to the car; this guy came out of what seemed like nowhere. He was running in the water and then lunged pulling out two small fish that hung from his bill. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/7111212f-876b-47f3-90b7-c9a0c84871f4/345634176_664463725520053_264256863885571068_n.jpg Nature Photography Archive - Birding and Migration "Black-Crowned Night Heron on the Rocks" White Rock Lake, circa 2023- 2024 Dallas TX. I love coming to White-Rock Lake to watch the birds there and to see the Black-Crowned Night Herons. In my neck-o-the-woods; I only see the Yellow-Crowned Night Herons. There is a division line to these fellas. The more east you go the more Black-Crowned you'll see with a mix of Yellow-Crowned Night Herons. The further west the more Yellow-Crowned. Here we see a lone Black-Crowned Night Heron standing on a rocky bank close to the spillway. The nice colors of white that fade with each colored plume. A soft transition to gray, to black. That plume of white that trails down the back of the head over the wings. This was around the early January months. Sometimes I see them early in the year and even on the coldest days. Just a lone bird looking for it's next meal or just to catch a break. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/4f17d8c6-dff5-45a6-b003-b545201e8c33/IMG_3734.JPG Nature Photography Archive - Birding and Migration An American Coot (Fulica americana) captured 11-13-2025 at Bowman Springs Park. This is another recent shot I too while I was watching the birds at the lake. I was there observing the birds on their migratory path and saw this guy swimming very close. I took this shot using my 75-300mm 5.8 F/Stop Zoom lens. This image also has a nice reflection as the bird swims closer in. A common sight at Lake Arlington; these are one of the non-migratory birds here at the Lake. They do move around and stay close with the Mallards and other birds. November is one of my favorite times to explore the lake. I take walks there just to pass the time. I have always loved the odd calls of these; I also like that they are referred to as the Mud Hen. These are just one of many birds that I have a fondness for. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/29f7684c-d8cc-488a-b3c3-398c55074465/600370402_3520514401422345_9121226323284706794_n+%281%29.jpg Nature Photography Archive - Birding and Migration "Least Sandpiper" Lake Arlington Tx, December 2025 A Least Sandpiper I observed recently at Lake Arlington. These tiny birds are amazing to observe. They have a Near Threatened Conservation Status. These are some of the tiniest winter birds I have been able observe. Lake Arlington is one of the best places to see these. They probe along the shorelines looking for insects, arachnids, small fish, biofilm, and other types of creatures. I enjoy watching them as they scurry about seeking out a meal. When you get really close to them they do not look like much at all. They are one of my favorite birds for just that reason. They blend in well to the shorelines; that grayish body is perfect for blending into wetland grasses and other plant matter. Sometimes I do not see them until they move. They can be seen in small to large groups often feeding together. When the tide comes in they will often go to a place they had already have fed to see if anything has come in. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/68f30845c0b14a57ff2f76e8/1e80e837-1dc9-44b0-81e6-9af148e6d890/633023858_3576278969179221_125217281786915604_n+%281%29.jpg Nature Photography Archive - Birding and Migration "Wings on Wings" #1 Ring-billed Gulls on Statue.
