Birds, dragon and damselflies and other natural (mostly winged) wonders, and the thoughts they inspire in me.

Something Different
That's not a bird or an Ode, it's a butterfly! Yes, I've expanded again. We were at the park on Labor Day with the kids trying to fly kites but the wind was not cooperating so I picked up my trusty camera and started shooting some butterflies in a nearby flowerbed.
Here is another shot of the Viceroy.
The most plentiful were the Buckeyes. Note the really cool "eye patches" on the wings.
There were also several Gulf Fritillaries around. Now, Viceroy and Buckeye sound okay, but you start throwing out Gulf Fritlillary, and I think it counts me as a Butterfly nerd....Checkout the cool pattern underneath these, though....
