1. Aug 27, images are from my morning walk with Miney and some photos of the hummingbirds and Butterflies in my yard.  

I have been sharing lots of butterflies on my blog.  They may look familiar but they are new photos for this post. Back yard butterflies, the Fritillary, Skipper, Eastern Tiger Swallowtail, Spicebush Swallowtail. 

2. A larger look at the Eastern Tiger Swallowtail. It is a beautiful butterfly.

3. Aug 30th, sunrise seen from the parking lot at the Dialysis Center. 

4. Aug 31st, it was fun watching the Ruby-throated Hummingbirds with my grandsons. I think they were amazed to see these tiny birds flying around our deck.

A closer look at the Ruby-throated Hummingbird at the feeder.  

5.  My flashback images this week are from Oct 2016, the Lakeland neighborhood birds. Even though our time living in Florida was short Oct 2016-March 2017, I enjoyed the birdwatching. We visited so many parks and beaches and bird walks around our little Lakeland neighborhood. Below are all birds seen in the neighborhood.  The Osprey on a electric pole. 

6. The Sandhill Cranes were seen all around the neighborhood, sometimes walking down the streets. Below they are near the boat ramp. 

7. A large flock of Snowy Egrets landed on the pier. 

8. A Tricolored Heron standing on the railing. 

9. The Black-bellied Whistling ducks were a favorite, I always could hear them flying in and landing on a neighbors lawn. Below they are on a pier.
