After
Things have been busy lately for me. Trying to start a business, working with a new client, my parent's 50th wedding anniversary, have all taken my time and attention. Much of the heat of the activity is over and now I'm in 'after'. Just as much of the summer things at the park are showing themselves to be 'after'.
Like this gray-headed coneflower with fading petals. A grasshopper is enjoying the late rays of the day on her used-up center.
This Winged Loosetrife enjoys some of the last licks of sunlight.
And remember the 'Egret Tree'? Instead of the early morning, I found one near day's end.
But lest one think that all is fading, a vibrant Viceroy is enjoying a small patch of newly blossomed Common Boneset.
Hope you enjoyed!

Hi Robin, just found your blog recently,
ReplyDeleteand have been enjoying it. Especially the
local nature aspect of it. In this recent
blog you picture a butterfly that really
looks like a Viceroy to me. I say that
because it has a black stripe on the hind
wing, whereas a Monarch doesn't have that
stripe. I enjoy reading your blog, keep up
the good work, and good luck with the new
endeavor.
