May’s cover image was taken by Josh Thompson of Driftless Hills Photography and Metal Works.

Josh, pictured at left, found this morel on private land in Highland. That’s him perched in a tree to get his shot while not disturbing the habitat so early in the morel season. Josh, who says he enjoys finding and photographing morels more than eating them, resides in Clyde and photographs everything from astrophotography to weddings. Thanks to Josh for contributing to our cover! For more of his work, see Driftless Hills Photography on Facebook and Instagram and contact driftlesshillsphoto@gmail.com.
