Perfectly Perched
Perched at the edge of a leaf and taking a break from their seemingly endless flight. Perhaps deciding which flower to visit next or just taking in the wonderful view. The wildflowers were thick along this on this stretch of trail so the choices were many for a butterfly that day.

Summer Sunset on the Pond
Yesterday I could feel it happening. The sunset is getting earlier, the algae is in full bloom and the nights have cooled down just a few degrees. Summer is still hanging on and we may even get a few sweltering days but I can feel fall just around the corner. Zeroimage pinhole camera and Kodak Film.
10 Lined June Bug
From Wikipedia:
The ten-lined June beetle (Polyphylla decemlineata), also known as the watermelon beetle, is a scarab beetle, living in the western United States and Canada. The adults are attracted to light and feed on foliage. They can make a hissing sound when touched or otherwise disturbed, which can resemble the hissing of a bat.
Soft Summer Bells
Soft Summer Bells ring as we hike along the trail in the Mt Zirkel Wilderness.
Places like this are few and far between and protecting them is worth the effort.
Finding Shelter in the Trees
Looking out from the shelter provided by giant trees while waiting for the rain to slow before we hit the water for a paddle around the Acous Peninsula on Vancouver Island, CA.
A Little Tune
A tiny marsh wren belting out a little tune on an overcast day in the Arapahoe National Wildlife refuge near Walden, CO.
Ocean view
A nice quiet view to start the week. Looking into the pacific ocean on a quiet morning.
