More Than Birds
During my paddling this morning I saw (and photographed) more than birds. Even though birds were my primary interest, other “things” of interest did catch my eye.
Wildflowers are moving quickly toward the end of season flowers. All were pretty.

Wildlife was present to - from frogs and turtles to a skipper butterfly.

Birds provided too much temptation to not photograph them. Here you go…
