It’s that time of year…lots of little spotted bums to be found around home

Couple of fawns stopped by the front yard this afternoon for lunch
- Mom just enjoyed the view while they ate…I’m thinking with twins she needed some quiet time
July 24
Common Whitetail Dragonflies ( even the brown one apparently ) soaking up the last of the evening sun. Insane amount of dragonflies in the backyard lately but they rarely hold still long enough for me….
July 19
I could watch a ladybug on a flower all day….seriously.
- alllllll day…….

I have a need to photograph the butterflies in our backyard lately, this one spent awhile in the blackberry bush….no idea what kind of butterfly it is.
July 8
went out looking for whales….found bears instead. Apparently this is a female, roughly 4 yrs old. I named her Betty.
- found a large pod of Pacific White Sided Dolphins that wanted to play around the boat.
- It was kinda taken far away…but they wanted to show off a little bit for us.

Papilio rutulus, also known as the Western Tiger Swallowtail hanging out on my rhododendron this afternoon

One of the four Rufous Hummingbirds that really likes my torch flowers….really likes them. Apparently the bees do, too.

- Rufous Hummingbird
June 3 – June 8
I call him Butch. I spotted him at the top of the Rossland as he debated whether or not to continue down and jump off the rock wall or go back…he opted to go back
- Marmot scurrying to hide when he heard me coming…..
….but he still wanted to check me out as I went by….
- Heavy rain and snow melting combine for some pretty sweet waterfalls on the side of the road
- I decided to get out of the car to stretch my legs and get some fresh air….walked down a path that it appears other walkers like to frequent….snapped off a picture and backed away slowly…I call this one Boris….he’s Russian in my world.
- Sacred heart Church, built in 1897 in Greenwood, BC…smallest city in Canada
- Quail family…little fuzzy but those suckers can move!
- Last bear sighting of the road trip….he was eating, didn’t look too friendly, had some impressive scars on his snout, I kept a very safe distance….I named him Nero.
