Arrived back home after 5 days in Ohio and Indiana and rushed over to my favorite park to check birds and butterflies. On the bird front there was one northern shoveler, one great egret, a couple mallards, eight double-crested cormorants swimming together, ring-billed gulls, a bevy of green-winged teal, and hundreds of Canada geese.
Butterflies were limited. Two monarchs and a handful of cabbage butterflies were feeding on asters. The photo is a monarch flying toward a purple aster, and the photo was selected due to abundant color. Although in the air, it reminds me of an aquarium.
