Tulip Poplar Flower

I really like how this photo came out. I think it is in the top 5 of my best photo's.

 

 

 

 

Some kinda bug

I recently came across three Giant Ichneumons insects, a large wasp species laying eggs on an old log. The whip like tails are about six inches long. They use them to lay eggs in holes that other insects have laid their eggs. They totally ignored me.

My favorite subject has returned!

It's been warm enough for the mushroom to start growing again. I am sure there will be more photo's to come.

An unusual find

While hiking along a trail near a creek I found this crawdad. Not a great photo but unusual enough to post.
