Black Lake Park


 American Goldfinch

I spent 2 1/2 hours at the park starting at 10:00 a.m. and counted 23 species of birds.


While trying to get pictures of  a Cardinal Flower I had this
Ruby-throated Hummingbird come in and visit all the blossoms. 

Peck's Skipper

I also had 11 species of butterflies ...

Eastern Pondhawk

... and 6 species of dragonflies.

Great shots Charlie. Did you see the monarch catapillar when taking the "skipper" picture or was that just a bonus?

Don not only has eagles at his shop but eagle eyes as well!

The caterpillar was a bonus. I didn't notice it until I was editing the picture.
