and has time enough.

Worm-eating Warbler - Another New Life Bird!

Another new lifer for me!  A Worm-eating Warbler.  
To be honest, I had never even heard of this warbler before.  I looked through all of my guides, and did some comparing of pics online - and I do believe that I have ID'd him correctly - BUT - if I'm wrong - please let me know :)  

We do not need to attend classroom training programs for everything, our observation opens the windows of knowledge around us.

American Goldfinch Flies Between The Thistle


Female American Goldfinch takes flight


A closer crop of the same pic - those wings just make my heart flutter every time :)

Each moment of the year has its own beauty... a picture which was never seen before and which shall never be seen again.

Fritillary Flies Over the Field

If you are a regular here - you know that I am ALWAYS trying to get "flight" shots.  
Butterflies, Birds, Bugs - just about anything with wings that I can capture with my camera.  This is Fritillary butterfly flying over a field of wildflowers - a Variegated Fritillary (I think) 
This totally shows what my summer is all about!

Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly.
