This morning, I'm sharing three Snowy Egret photos—two because I like them, and the last one because it makes me laugh out loud.
Amber Snail at Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge
I've been meaning to share this Amber Snail photo since last summer. Today’s as good a day as any, so here it is. Pretty sure it’s an Amber Snail—though I could be wrong.
Looking Forward To More Green Heron Photos
The last week or so has been too gray and wet to get out and photograph birds, but it has given me time to think about taking more Green Heron photos in Oklahoma.
Wet Coyote Pup At Sequoyah National Wildlife Refuge

My First Monarch Butterfly In Arkansas
On the same day that I photographed the Carolina Wren, whose photos I shared yesterday, I saw and photographed my first Monarch butterfly in Arkansas!

Happy Sunday! Today I am sharing one Red-bellied Woodpecker male up close photo that I took two days ago just because I like the image of the woodpecker.
