Back to Butterflies
20150926-_DSC8460
There were only a handful of monarch butterflies out today, despite the warm temps 80+F/27C and plentiful food supply of aster and goldenrod flowers. One monarch posed over and over again for the camera, and was able to get 8 butterfly-in-flight photos of this one butterfly in a 64 second time period.
At the marsh I saw what I think is a scaup, a duck which is either migrating through or wintering in our area. Will hopefully blip this bird in the near future, but butterflies and flowers are more colorful and appealing!
