Duck Duck ... Muskrat!

There was commotion at the creek this morning.  Ducks haven't migrated yet.  Muskrats are antsy about it and ready to chase!  Like a game of Duck Duck ... Muskrat.

Enjoy!

To Each His Own

Although these three wildflowers are scattered and cross-scattered across the park.  

Never did I see these bees select any other flower. Each had their own favorite and stuck to it.

Enjoy!

Swallowtail Tale

There are some things that were abundant last year, but seemingly missing this year.   As I started my walk this morning, I wondered if I might find them.  To my pleasant surprise, toward the end of my walk, my missing Swallowtail (Eastern Tiger Swallowtail, male) was discovered enjoying Bee Balm.  He was not the most cooperative, laying low and hiding among the leaves and flowers.  After a short time, a Monarch also discovered the Swallowtail and chased him away.  Monarchs are territorial? Maybe!

Enjoy!
