A Paulownia (Empress Tree) in full bloom |
On the way back, we stopped in at the Grays Road Dog Park. The weather has been gray and wet recently, and today was no exception. Not the most photogenic day, but I chased a couple of butterflies down while Skye. On the right is a female Spicebush Swallowtail who was visiting the abundant Dandelions.
A shot that shows the classic comet shaped mark on the underside which is the easiest field mark of the Spicebush butterfly
In the absence of other dogs, Skye ran around a little, enough to work up a decent pant, and then laid down in the grass.
A Common Buckeye took an opportunity to suck some moisture out of the damp ground, and was surprisingly patient while I took photos.
