Saturday's Critters # 453

 Welcome to Saturday's Critters!

Hello and happy Saturday!

 If you love all God's creatures like I do and also like to blog about them and take critter photos this is where you can share your critter post. Link up your post and share your critters, join in with my critter party ! You can share any kind of critters the real ones, pretend ones, statues and paintings, a new or old post!

My critters are from our yard and neighborhood.  The butterflies are loving the Buddleia, sometimes I see the Hummingbird fly into the bush to perch near the feeder. The Grand-dogs will be with us until my son has his fence built, it seems it takes a while to get HOA approvals. 

1. July 27th , our butterfly bush is filled with the yellow and black Tiger Swallowtail butterflies. I finally saw a Monarch at the same butterfly bush and a Admiral Butterfly.  

"Butterflies are nature's angels. They remind us what a gift it is to be alive."

2. July 27th, the Yellow Tiger Swallowtail Butterfly. 

" Happiness is found in the warm sun and butterflies."

3. July 27th , my first sighting of the season, the Monarch butterfly. 

4. Aug 1st, a walk on the fire road with the grand-dogs. Winnie the Corgi needs to stop and rest during the walks. 

5. Aug 2nd, I sat on our deck and just watched the butterflies at the Buddleia bush. I was happy to see a Monarch butterfly visiting again. Others in the mosaic are the Eastern Tiger Swallowtail and Black Swallowtail. 

6.  Aug 2nd, same image as in the mosaic above, the Black Swallowtail butterfly.

7.  Aug 3rd, a few of my backyard birds, the Northern Cardinal, Mockingbird, Ruby-throated Hummingbird and the Tufted Titmouse.

A few of the birds like the Mockingbird and the Cardinal were in our blueberry bush.

8. A Blue Jay sitting in the back yard pine tree.
