By: ForestWander Nature Photography

With the abundance of Wildlife including deer, turkey, bear, wildcats and other wild animals wildlife photography opportunities can be found all over West Virginia some choice professional photographers of the east coast frequent West Virginia to capture wildlife in it's RAW form.

The Mountain state also offers some of the greatest landscapes man's eyes have ever seen. When you stand on the top of Spruce knob and look all around you see some of the most majestic mountains that the east coast of America can offer. For miles you can see the vast rolling mountaintops and the wide open sky's. With Beautiful rolling farm fields and thundering high towering waterfalls there are so many outstanding landscape sights to see in West Virginia that you must see for yourself in order to believe it.

The wildflowers in West Virginia are second to none. From the high mountain varieties of Dolly Sods to the carnivorous insect eaters of Cranberry Glades West Virginia has some very beautiful and unique plants that cannot be found anywhere else on the eastern coast. I have included a link to the West Virginia State parks Monongahela guide to the flower blooming schedule. West Viginia Wild Flower Blooming Schedule

The fall colors that light the mountain sides in West Virginia are exceptionally beautiful around October 14th. The trees that change the hills from a dull green come to life with bright brilliant reds, yellows, purple and orange. This gives the nature photographer a great opportunity to capture these colors but only for a short while as soon the leaves fall to the ground are are able to be captured again until the following year.
