Catching Up With Random Pics
Every now and then I fall behind when it comes to posting pictures. Maybe my recent posts have had a theme, or possibly there were just too many images for one day. Regardless, today I am playing catch-up with a few images.
In our CRP/Pollinator habitat I found this beautiful foxglove beardtongue plant. Since it is no secret that Iowa prairies are small and surrounded by farming activities, I thought having an out of focus red building in the background would make a nice image that tells a “Rural America” story.

Also in our pollinator habitat I found two versions of purple coneflower. I will share them here.

In case you are wondering, I did not want to become rusty without fishing the past few days so today I tossed bait at largemouth bass. This one accepted the challenge.

Finally, the other day I mentioned I might put together a video of the mountain biking some of our group did last weekend. This is a link to that video from Oz Trails Bike Park.
