Weaver's Romance

Weavers took advantage of a windless night.  The morning dew approved their work with wet kisses.  Then a gentle sun-warmed breeze blew the kisses away.

Enjoy!

Damsels

There are many damselflies congregating just off the lake shore in the tall grass.  Most of these are some kind of bluet.

In the photo above, how many damselflies can you find?  I see nine!

Enjoy!

Red, Unexpected

August brings reds in unexpected places.  Like dewy bits of red on grass (probably Sideoats Gama above).  

At first glance, the red on this small tree looked like red flowers.  Closer inspection proved otherwise.

Enjoy!

Funky Bug

This funky looking bug is a Clay Colored Billbug.  They are large weevils that mostly eat corn or grains.  This one was by the lake.  

Enjoy!

Tiny White Blossoms - Big Misery

Up close, Common Yarrow looks like little white blossoms within blossoms.  But, this isn't the culprit that makes some people miserable with allergies right now.  Weather has forecast grass pollen at very high levels right now.  Walking along the marsh road, I can see why.


Enjoy!
