LATE SUMMER FLORA & FAUNA

This little guy, along with his buddy, lives under one of the blue slate steps off the back porch. After your Dad reset the steps, they promptly moved back in...er under. We see them many evenings.





I found this lovely web glistening in the morning sunshine in the front garden by the oak tree.




Arlo and Harley enjoying a dip in Medina Lake on their last run before Harley headed for Wyoming with his people.

Miss you guys - hope all is well.




Good morning, Glory! I wonder how many Morning Glory pictures I've taken?




Very cool bug at Medina Lake.




The bees were very busy! The good gathering days are numbered.




This beautiful dragonfly was basking in my fern garden.

Wow. What a marvelous place!



Love you all, Mom

  2. Those are really really nice pictures. I love the one of the the toad, and that dragonfly is downright stunning. Great craftsmanship on this set. That little red and black beetle is a milkweed beetle. Their entire life cycle revolves around said plant. Their colour warns predators that they, like monarchs, become poisonous from eating the milkweed.
