Two Birds, Two Butterflies.


It's been a quiet week for birds so I went into my archives from three years ago to find something for Wild Bird Wednesday. The bird flying over the lake is a green heron, although he doesn't look very green compared to the foliage and its reflection. (You may need to click to the second picture to see it large enough to see it well.)

The bird on a post is a male Northern Cardinal.

I suppose the butterflies will be flying south soon. I hope to see more of them next year.

Our weather forecast says we may get storms tomorrow. I hope everyone stays safe.

    I've sadly not been outside much this year, so have really depended upon seeing other's photos of nature here on blogs. Thank you!
