Another walk in the woods

A Study in Scarlet

A Scarlet Tanager is studied, banded, and released at the Prince Edward Point Bird Observatory.

Joy, unexpected

The trail beckoned us

To revel in the crimson and gold

And to bid the geese good luck as they prepare for their journey

Little did we know that there would still be monarchs

And painted ladies

Sharing their beauty as well.

Going out in a blaze of colour

Peeping frog!

Hyla versicolor does not approve of the state of my windows.

Wild geese that fly ...

With a rainbow on their wings ... These are a few of my favourite things!

Have I mentioned that I love butterflies?

Neither words nor photos can do justice to the amazing air show that takes place out on our back forty these days.
