Took a quick trip back to Roosevelt Wetlands this morning. The Canada Goose apparently had their babies and I missed them. I still got a variety of interesting shots. There were a lot more dragonflies and butterflies and less small birds this time.

What a great collection of a wide variety of plants and animals. It looks like all of the animals are perfectly posed for you to take their pictures. Really amazing photos. I love the Indian blanket and the mallard in flight. You always seem to capture everything at just the right moment.
Each group of photos seem to be betetr than previous ones, if that’s possible.
My fear of snakes comes from a racer in MO that ran along by my side as I was running along a fence. I was about four years old.
