    Viceroy on a dogwood leaf

    This fellow was riding the wind on a dogwood leaf last Sunday morning when I shot this photo through our bedroom window. We have a lot of viceroys around here and I think that’s what this one is, but he wouldn’t open his wings. I don’t blame him. There was a pretty stiff breeze.

    You can see artifacts from the window in the top half of the photo.

What I'm Doing...

  • In the dark of the moon, a deep black sky, the dipper tips a libation over our roofbeam. 15 hrs ago
  • The eastern horizon glows like the embers of a sacred fire. Chattering songbirds call for day. To the south, a dove mourns. 1 day ago
  • Drizzle is a miserable word. The heavens lower, my mood is dour. A little spring and I would sing. The sun would turn me carefree as a bird. 3 days ago
  • I open the back door and the wren flies at shin level. Is she nesting on the porch? Our cats are old but not that old. 5 days ago
