My mom, the dogs and I went up to the cabin this weekend and the weather was wonderful. Not too hot and not very humid. In the garden at the cabin we have butterfly bushes that I never really been a fan of. Not because I dont like them. Its just because I am not a fan of bees and attracting them is not something I like doing, But, it is worth it because seeing the beautiful delicate butterflies makes everything seem wonderful.
At times it is hard to photograph butterflies because they move a lot. Always moving their wings and flying to another flower. Just have to watch them and get a shot before they fly off. Its so worth it though!
A bumble bee! I had to be very brave to get this close to him. Just the buzzing noise of bees makes me cringe. If you ever hear me screech and see my running very fast its probably because I heard and saw a bee or wasp near me.
Now, this little creature I have no clue what it is. First, I thought it was a big bee and my mom thought it was a baby hummingbird. But it looks like a bee butterfly doesnt it? Does anyone know what this is? Its very cool. I just dont have a clue what it is. Its a hummingbird moth.
Today was my very last day of school as a junior and now glorious summer starts. I do not have any big plans for the summer of 09 yet. All I know is there is no school to attend and I can just have fun and enjoy life. This summer I am taking this photography class which is going to be fun. I am always happy to learn more about photography and the opportunities out there. My mother and I will be going up to the cabin a lot which will be fun. I love being out in nature and swimming in the lake. The dogs love the long walk or runs around the lake when we are up there. Summer time is here and I am ready to enjoy it!
