#Evening Hunt. From my archives, a small heron hunts as the sun sets.

A small heron (tri-colored, I believe) hunts in a pond at a nearby refuge, while the sun sets behind it, creating a rim of light around the heron.

One more photo today for Sunday #stunday , a beautiful Gulf Fritillary butterfly feasting on what I believe is verbena litoralis (not a native plant to the USA). Happy Sunday! #photography #butterfly #naturephotography #nature #flowers #bloomscrolling
An orange, white, and black Gulf Fritillary butterfly is feasting on purple verbena litoralis, a flower not native to the US. This was taken at a nearby wildlife refuge. Such a gorgeous butterfly, one of my favorites.

Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words...

I had been hoping to see this beauty for some time. I turned around and there he was, crossing #TheRoad just behind me. He paused for just a moment, looking at me, and then continued on... #BlueSkyArtShow #wildlife #wildlifephotography #nature #naturephotography #onlybeautifulthings
A beautiful bobcat is crossing a gravel road at a nearby wildlife refuge. He paused for a moment, looking right at me, just long enough for me to snap this shot, and then went on.

This is one of my favorite photos. A mated pair of white ibises are working together to build their nest. I edited this photo in PS and Topaz to create a more painterly look. This photo was taken at Pinkney Island National Wildlife Refuge .

Looking forward to beautiful fall colors! From my archives, just off the Blue Ridge Parkway. #ForestFriday #trees #nature #photography #naturephotography #onlybeautifulthings
I took this while taking a fall drive along the Blue Ridge Parkway. The colors were extraordinary! It had been raining, so the colors were even more saturated.
