More Insects, new pictures



       I love cone flowers.  They bloom forever, are very easy to grow, smell wonderful, and attract all kinds of butterflies and insects.   Leave the heads on after they bloom and the goldfinches love them or cut them for longer bloom season.







         This carpenter ant colony was in my plum tree which we lost to the storm.  Between the woodpecker and the ants it didn't stand a chance.

I is for Insects.

   Martha's A to Z photo Challenge brings us to I.  I decided to do a review of my insect collection I have taken since I started shooting.  Forgive for them all not being new but they are my favorites.  They make great subjects.  So here they are.

Insects.

H

  On my bike ride today I ran across some H's for Martha's A to Z photo shoot.  First of all a sign.  Notice it starts and ends with H.



     Then a Hawk up High


    Further along we ran across this Habitat for birds.



   And at the end of our ride we went to our Haven



    And Rick had a
Hefeweizen.  Ta Da, my H's
