A flock of 6 Bluebirds gobbled up the berries on this tree. You can see a 2nd fluttering in back.

When the Great Spreadwings are not chasing the larger dragonflies they find time for other activities.

A pair of mallards have taken to the newly constructed retention pond. Geese and other ducks tend to stop for a day or two and move on.

A Mantis egg pod the size of a golf ball. Nature invented expandable foam long before humans.

Rhagio plumbeus from May, but I found out today what it was. First identified photo in VA and only one was farther south (in Maryland). About 100 have been photographed. There is so much interesting nature around us.

This Carolina Wren jumped up in front of me before letting me know it wanted me to leave the area.

It is nice to see a young Red-tailed Hawk in the local park. The family from last year left after one of the adults was killed on the highway in Feb.

The House Finches really like these berries, and the other birds leave them alone.

The last Cat Bird of summer. A little more than a week ago they were all around. Then they all left at once. I was happy to see one last one show up.

Shadow Darner patrolling a small pond. A great Damselfly kept chasing it away from one side of the pond.

With 10 days until Halloween it is looking like spirits are coming. The sun is shining through the trees. Leaves are both thinning and turning color. The creatures are becoming shadowy silhouettes.

The immature hawks that raised a youth molted into their adult colors. This one is quite striking.

Was this the same Kingfisher back for 3 days or did another one come by?

My first Winter Wren this season. The only place you can see them all year in VA is in the Appalachian Mountains. Most summer in Canada.

The White-throated Sparrows are back for winter. They are slowly adjusting to being in a park with people. 2 days ago, they flew at first sight of me. In a month they will as calm as the House Sparrows.
