Butterflies and birds from Bluegrass.....

I never finished posting my photos from Bluegrass.  Here are some more shots from that day.

 There were lots of Sulphur butterflies on the milkweed growing along the roadside.

Three on this flower!

 The "edge" shot :-)

 Dancing :-)
Actually it was lifting off, I believe.

Male and female Clouded Sulphur

Just a large field of thistles.

 The bees like the thistles, too.

Dickcissel

Mourning Dove sitting on a stop sign riddled with bullet holes (if I hadn't cropped it).  I assume she wasn't there when the shooting took place :-)

 Fleabane

 Horned Lark that would not hold still and turn around for me.

 Indigo Bunting

 Kingbird in hiding

Lift off!

The back view of another Kingbird.

This may be a new bird for me.
 I think it is the Willow Flycatcher.  Very cute little bird hiding in the willow tree along the lake edge.

 Robin with a mouthful of .....something?

The male Robin with a huge mouthful of worms for the family!

Brown Thrasher with something that it ate after I snapped a photo.

 A tree full of turtles

And one last butterfly to end the day!
