You’ll find our stories of the day – past, present & future (events) – right here on today’s DailyPage.
Because every day has its own rhythm, we’re sharing a song of the day here at 365Barrington.com.
On this day, January 20th in 1889, Leadbelly, (Huddi William Ledbetter), Blues musician, who wrote ‘Goodnight Irene’ and ‘The Rock Island Line’ was born. He’s also well known for popularizing Midnight Special, a traditional folk song thought to have originated among prisoners in the American South. Covered by Credence Clearwater Revival on their 1969 Willie and the Poor Boys album, The song refers to the passenger train Midnight Special and its “ever-loving light” which is reminiscent of imagery from gospel songs about the light of salvation. Now that’s something worth singing about!

I moved my trailcam to a different section of Flint Creek Savanna and got some new species and better views.
Date, time, and temp are in the info bar at the bottom.
Full screen for better detail.
People always ask me if that swimming rodent is a beaver or a muskrat; note the amazing size difference between the two.
Enjoy two species of turtle, neither of which is a Painted. #flintcreek #flintcreeksavanna #citizensforconservation #365barrington #wildlife #trailcam #trailcamera #muskrat #beaver #whitetaileddeer #snappingturtle #spinysoftshellturtle #spinysoftshell #carp #woodduck #mallards #mallardducklings #raccoon #greatblueheron

Henslow`s Sparrow, a grassland species named for a close friend of Charles Darwin, is in decline across its range. However, Chicago area populations are actually increasing due to the amount of restored grasslands available to them locally. We saw and heard 19 of them on today`s bird walk. #henslowssparrow #sparrow #birding #birdingphotography #birdphotography #favoritebird #beautifulbirds #nikonbirds #bestbirdshots #bestbirds #citizensforconservation #365barrington #prairierestoration #prairie
