We just wanted to mention that you and the staff at Nature Inn did another fine job on their annual Earth Day poster. The wide variety of topics shown added to the interest.
Keep up the good work and contact us again next Spring for more photo submissions. |

Your website and Facebook pages are wonderful. I was sad to discover that the inn is only a place I can visit on-line. |

I have been searching for ages for decent images of North American wildflowers to use in my artworks, and would be very grateful to you if you would please consider giving me permission to use the wildflower images that are on your site? |

We had a talk at the Rhododendron society about native bees the other night. It was a perfect opportunity for me to promote your web site when people started asking the fellow to identify bees and wasps. So I was able to give them the
web site and mention the newsletter.
PS I love your site map which helps me to find stuff. |

I've taken a trip on your website, and I can assure you that I will recommend your pictures to all my photo editor friends in various Italian magazines. I've been working as a nature journalist since 1985, and I think I can gauge nature pictures. Some of yours are stunning indeed. |

I have just discovered the jigsaw puzzles on your website and the fact that the shapes can be changed! I love doing the "bird" shapes. I have looked over the pictures before but never took the time to do the puzzles. Learn something new every day!!!! Your website is very interesting and knowledgeable. |

I clicked on your site to spend a few minutes looking around, but it seems every time I get to it I can not get out. I get so wrapped up in your bird photos I loose track of time. You have an outstanding site with fabulous images, it is a must for everyone here to see. Great job. |

So glad to see you got stuck at the Inn! Thanks for your support. |

We came across your website this summer while searching for identifications of some Wyoming wildflowers; it was indeed a blessing in so many ways. I am a 4th grade teacher here in Spencer, West Virginia and we use the images taken and collected over the years for classroom instruction and sharing with our friends in education. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK, |
|
- Margaret |
We so glad you found us and that you found the Inn helpful. |

Your state bird page (your whole site, actually) looks terrific! Certainly an "Inn" I will continue to enjoy visiting. I can't tell you how thrilled I am you used some of my photos and even gave me photo credit for them! We all so love to see our name in print! Thank you so much for including me in the development of this page!

It's marvelous! How imaginative to set it up as if one can actually "stay" there. And eat. Really it is fantastic and so informative too. I'm going to put it in my favorites so I can visit any time. Congratulations on a super website. |

Thanks, Betty. We'll be adding more and more content as time goes by. |

Nice site. I do some web management myself, so I know how much work it can take to build and maintain these sites.
