Beauty On The Forest Floor
Finally got a shot with wings closed when it flew to the forest floor. Those spots look more orange than red to me. It is feeding on some kind of minerals it has found down there.
Same bug, just holding my camera at a different angle.
This one is for the hyacinths.
Wild Hyacinth In The Clover
Just an ordinary patch of clover, until the wildflowers popped up. One of the early signs of Spring.
Went to Grand Park with Rick, Lisa, Crystal, and Grayson -- this place is FANTASTIC! Wow! Really looking forward to exploring this place some more this year.
Very windy day and it was hunkered down in the grass
Butter Butt Alert
These warblers are all over the place in the winter but this one was being quiet & still. Not sure what made me look up but there it was right above my head.
Really chilly morning, but what a wonderful time I had with the insect affinity group of NTMN's! We spotted quite a bit this morning, despite the chilly weather. :)
