I realized I haven't posted any nature shots recently...So this evening I decided to go for a walk down at the property and creek...
Pretty Purple Dragon fly
Leaf wing Butterfly sucking up the sap from a tree...
I watched him and his buddies fighting in the treetops then he came my way. I was quiet and still so he didn't know I was there until I started clicking the camera and then he was like Uh Oh!! He got really quiet and then slunk off into the trees...Good thing I wasn't an Owl or Hawk!!
Green Dragon Fly
Little tiny frog at the creek...They are so tiny, about the size of a dime, it's hard to follow them with the lens...
Rattle bush seed pods, the gorgeous orange orchid like flowers are gone. Pretty soon the seed pods will dry up and then they'll rattle, rattle, rattle...
Scarlet Sage, a hummingbird favorite
I think they are done with the pipeline, they came and flattened and smoothed all the dirt mounds today...
The tree canopy down at the creek...Actually I think I was taking a shot of another squirrel but darned if I could find him in the photo, lol...it happens! I had switched lens and couldn't zoom in, ekk!
This is our creek...This is where the upper part of the creek and the lower part of the creek converge to make one big creek...We normally kayak here and it's usually 3 to 4 ft deep. Not anymore and it's so sad to see it dried up. It's approx. 30 to 40 ft across here when there is water in it...We so need some rain...
Where have all the Huge fish gone? Hopefully they've moved to the deeper parts and I'm hoping it rains before those deeper parts dry up and run out of oxygen...Poor fish!
Yeah the dirt piles next to the Pool are gone...But my pool is one filthy mess covered in dirt and full of dirt...I am sure it will take me a few weeks to get it all cleaned up once again. Hopefully they are done moving dirt and this will be the last of the mess...I am so ready for it to be over with, what a mess!!
A big fluffy blue and pink cloud at sunset!!
Some where to the West of us someone got some rain...Gorgeous sunset with a Huge Thunderhead topping out...
