Flower in a flower

Today’s fishin’ trip yielded more photos than fish, but who could pass this up! The fish will still be there next time I visit.

American Vetch… and visitor

It is always worth while to spend time by the river because there’s almost always something beautiful there and today’s visit was no exception.

Tiny visitor

This afternoon while stalking a wildflower, I was very pleased when this little guy came along and graciously stayed to pose for his portrait. I think he’s related to one I came across last July.

He appears to have a lot of attitude for a little critter only an inch tall!

He would be a good mascot for a sports team: “The fighting butterflies”!
