I have so many things I’d love to blog about, and unfortunately, at the moment life is getting in the way of writing. But I won’t leave you with nothing. While watching a slide show of photos captured on a nature walk a couple weeks ago I decided, perhaps, it would be a good time to share a few in the “break room”. … Enjoy …
The purple phlox and yellow wildflowers are in full bloom, carpeting the woods in every spot where the rays of sun reach through the trees.
Butterflies fluttered and danced from one blossom to the next in the warm sun …
Viceroy butterfly
Black Swallowtail butterfly
Nessus Sphinx or Hummingbird Moth
When I first saw this moth (above and below center-left) I assumed it was a baby hummingbird until I saw no beak and it had antennae. About half the size of a hummingbird, it jets and halts between each blossom and drinks while arching its back and pushing its tail forward.
A beaver has been busy doing what beavers do …
And other critters have been busy …
A pair of Mallords enjoying the peace of a gentle flowing river …
Taking a break to stretch and preen …
And then it’s back to busy … 
Oh, to be a duck …
Till next time, many smiles! 🙂
