This one is from a week long camping trip in the Kansas Flint Hills. A great area to go without being crowded. He was in the Indian grass by our site, along with spiders, crickets and grasshoppers. I took a 6 image pano of it as well but focus got a little soft towards it's rear. Exciting to have seen two of them this year.

I believe I have correctly identified this butterfly as the Common Grass - blue or Zizina otis labradus
Quite tiny (1-2 cm tops). Landed on the flower stalk of one of my succulents. Hand-held. Moderate to heavy crop - was originally shot in landscape mode. (I find it quite awkward try to shoot in portrait when close up. On the KP with the battery grip, not so much, but I do not have the battery grip (yet ????) for the K3 Mark iii. :(:(:(:hmm::hmm::hmm:

This red '63 Corvette was - to my mind - the coolest car in the show I attended on Saturday. The car appears brand new (I even imagined I inhaled some new-car smell ;)) and has been maintained just as it came off the assembly line in 1963 . . . . . right down to bias ply tires. It's equipped with a 4-speed transmission connected to a 327 CI V-8 making 340 HP, the most powerful carbureted engine available at the time and almost as strong as the top-of-the line fuel-injected version (360 HP). The '63 models were built with the famous split rear window, and I suspect this car is worth a considerable amount of money.

It's not beautiful.
It looks like a confused abstract image.
But it's just what happens to cottonwood trees after their lifetime of living, growing. burning, falling, and just lying there.
Not only is it a home to little critters, but it is-- well, interesting!
Interesting to some; boring to others.
But it's nature in the natural!
Angky.

Caught this scene during a hike a few weeks ago. I'm glad I stopped and changed to the telephoto instead of being lazy.

shot of a golden-crowned sparrow. I think it's about time I hop in the car and go somewhere. :)

I came across a group of monarchs roosting overnight. I counted about 75 of them in several small groups the night before. This was one of the groups in the morning before they became active and flew off. There was a roost two nights in a row then nothing for the rest of the week. Most of the migration had already happened the week before.
I remember as a child walking out on the golf course to view thousands of them roosting in a maple tree, most of the neighborhood went out to see it. I'd like to see a large roost again some time.
Anyway, a small part of a roost.

This large ant was exploring some new blooms on my "White Anzac" callistemon. Another slightly over-cropped image (104%).

There are lots and lots of eagles down by the river at this time of year - all hunting the spawning kokanee.
Patiently waiting above a little pool while fishing.
Seen something! |

The sun drops over the western coast range mountains and the foothills on the eastern slopes begin to take shape and show their patterns.
This scene looks north with the remaining sky light coming from the west (left side).

Just strolling through the forest and snapping away at the little creatures - really liking the combo of KP and 150-450... :D |

This is one that I thought I had posted before, but I couldn't find it. I have been looking through my old rose photos, since here in Texas hill country, you see very few roses. I think it is because the deer eat them.:(
