It's Wildflower Wednesday here on the Blog! I took this image in early October. It was in an area that gets mowed fairly often so it was quite short and harder to tell what type it is. I believe this is Panicled Aster which can grow to 6 feet tall. It usually flowers August through September.
Today's image is how I commonly see these birds, they are flying away from me. 😏 I got a bit lucky with this one because it turned in front of me and I was able to get a bit closer image than when it first took off. This is a Great Blue Heron. I love to watch them fly with their long legs hanging out behind.
Happy Monday and happy new week! November is flying by! Today's image is a surprise one for me. I captured this image just last week. This is a Common Variegated Fritillary that was visiting my hanging on Zinnias. I was glad I had something for it to eat while it was out and about on a warm November day.
It's Steamy Sunday here on the Blog! This is an image from the Santa Run late in October at the C & H Railroad. The semaphore works and is a neat fixture at the railroad. There are a lot of actual pieces of railroad equipment or buildings in use there which makes for a more realistic experience. You can see the semaphore operating in the video I had posted HERE.
I took this image this past Tuesday evening of the colorful sky to the east as the sun was setting and the moon was rising.
It's Friday, TGIF! I was over at my Gazebo pond recently and the Sea Oats grass was still looking good. I took this image with my phone and really liked the bokeh in the image. Followers to the Blog know that Fridays Are Bokehlicious here!
I went walking last week after a rain and there were so many snails out on the sidewalk. In just a short span I counted 50 of them so there were at least double that amount if not more. I had never seen so many at one time. This is an image of one of the larger ones, most were about half the size or smaller. I thought it's shell was rather interesting with it's design.
