| I don't have a bug book, so unfortunately do not know what this one is. It must be a dragonfly of some sort. While I was cleaning up my garden today, he was nice enough to sit and pose for me. |
 |
| Just had to show an update of the swans by Dad's. They were enjoying the waterfall and the algae on the rocks. Mom is teaching them something new everyday! |
 |
| When we went for a stern wheeler ride on North Webster lake, this female mallard was part of our send off committee. |
 |
| This family of 3 came to visit as we were having dinner at the Frog in Syracuse, Indiana. |
 |
| See how the male arches his wings. It is beautiful to see. |
 |
| Here is their baby. Check out the size of that foot. The babies do swim with one foot on their backs. This is the first time we had seen swans in the wild, and with babies too. They were much bigger then the ones we see where my Father lives. The adults have their wings clipped so they can't fly away. These wild swans were liking the handouts they were receiving at the restaurant! |
 |
| Rose of Sharon was in bloom. It has been years since we have seen these. They are not so popular where we live, but seemed to pop up all around where we were touring in Indiana. |
 |
| This was so pretty, too. Another color of Rose of Sharon |
 |
| While we were traveling the back roads of Marshall County, Indiana, I had to make my husband back up to get this picture. She was so nice to stand in the water while I took her picture. |
 |
| I love how her reflection was in the water. As I have said before, these pictures are ones I thought turned out pretty good. They will win no prizes, but are a great reminder to me of the beautiful things we see in nature. Mary |
