Who's doing all that singing?

I have added two links (on the right) to help you identify and appreciate our little feathered friends. One site is excellent for bird songs. I never knew that some birds have two or even three bird calls. This site has them all. Birds and Blooms is one of my favorite magazines. Beautiful pictures with hints to attract birds to your yard as well as gardening articles.

Lower Huron Early Summer Morning

Took these pictures July 6th in the early morning. Hard to believe that summer is over already.

On my way out to blow those confounded acorns from my driveway.

September Butterflies

All week my back has been bothering me but today I needed a little walk and some time away from home. I went to Lake Erie Metro Park. I spotted 5 different butterflies as I was strolling along. I am no butterfly expert so I had to get out my butterfly book to identify these pictured. The butterfly above is a Painted Lady and I saw it on the nature trail. The others I saw along the edge of the marsh among the ragweed and other wildflowers. Below is the common Cabbage White, next, the Buckeye and last is the Silver Spotted Skipper. What a gorgeous day and how beautiful is nature.

Ready for some football...
