Snapshots gathered from spring foraging around Chicago outdoors and a smattering of sage advice; plus Wild Things and the Stray Cast

Dale Bowman “Did any of the neighbors see?’’ my wife asked. In a yellow slicker, I had picked young dandelions from our lawn in the rain this month, then prepared them. I’ve had an interesting spring foraging or, more accurately, wandering around. † † † On Saturday, I wandered around a favorite morel-hunting area. There were no morels, despite friends sending photos of good finds. But mayapples caught my eye. They had grown much in two weeks, some nearing a foot high. I bent to see downy yellow violet, violets and spring beauty up close. Sizing up mayapples last weekend while wandering around sorta looking for morels mushrooms.

So Great, So Fragile: Partnerships seek solutions to protect majesty of Great Lakes, Lake Michigan

So Great, So Fragile: Partnerships seek solutions to protect majesty of Great Lakes, Lake Michigan WLS Share: CHICAGO (WLS) The Great Lakes, while beautiful, are a fragile freshwater ecosystem that needs to be protected. The mission is to save North America s most valuable resource. Climate change and extreme weather are becoming more frequent. High lake levels and erosion is causing millions of dollars of damage to the prized shoreline. Pollution is causing toxic algal blooms and an abundance of plastic contamination in the water and along the shore. Invasive species are wreaking havoc on the natural ecosystem. The cities that surround the Great Lakes wouldn t be what they are today without that breathtaking natural resource, and while many factors are at play there is one common goal: saving, protecting and preserving the glorious bodies of water and our cities that we call home.

Tackling the question of crappie vs croppie in the fullness of the holiday spirit

Provided But others? Well. Vic Santucci, Illinois’ Lake Michigan program manager, emailed, “I say crappie, as in row ‘crop.’ Sorry, old school.” Last week in the obituary for Ed Mullady, I noted how he said ‘‘croppie’’ for crappie, and it made me smile. He even wrote it as croppie. Enter Mark Brown, the erudite, ruggedly handsome (in a scholarly way) Chicago Sun-Times political columnist. “I’m confused by the lead in today’s column,” he emailed. “I thought the correct pronunciation of crappie is croppie.” When I suggested he join the 21st century on the favored panfish, he felt compelled to add, “I think you are wrong.”
