Snowberry Clearwing Moth Photos From Arkansas
Snowberry Clearwing Moth photos are what I am sharing this morning. The first five images were taken yesterday, and the last one was taken in the spring.

Today I am sharing a Tufted Titmouse video that I created early yesterday morning, showing the bird working hard to get a sunflower seed out of its shell.
I was enjoying my coffee outside yesterday morning when I spotted this Three-toed Box Turtle walking through the dew-covered grasses. Yes, I had to take photos.
Two days ago, I was happy to photograph an adult male Ruby-throated Hummingbird chirping. The male was reacting to another hummingbird near 'his' feeder.
I'm sharing a simple photo of a female Downy Woodpecker this morning that I took yesterday. But is the image all that simple for me? It isn't, not really.
This morning, I'm sharing two photos of a young Red-bellied Woodpecker that I photographed two days ago. I'm so very delighted to be seeing this species again.
There was a surprise visitor at my friend Steve Creek's bird bath yesterday—it was a gorgeous young Painted Bunting that decided to spend some time in his yard.
When I had this young Blue Jay in my viewfinder, I could clearly see that it was immature. The pin feathers and new growth told me everything I needed to know.
While I photographed this young Northern Cardinal that is molting, I had to chuckle to myself. I know he looks messy, but he also seems kind of endearing to me.
The theme for today is blue subjects: Photos of a Blue-gray Gnatcatcher on a driftwood perch, along with a Blue Supermoon image from early yesterday morning.
Today, I am sharing Carolina Chickadee photos, plus a Trumpet Vine Sphinx moth that was on the driftwood where the chickadee landed two days ago in Arkansas.
The Pine Warblers hadn't been around in a while, but they have come back, so I was excited and delighted to take immature Pine Warbler photos three days ago.
After sharing a photo of me photographing a cicada shell on a tree yesterday, I thought I'd share photos of a Fall Southeastern Dusk-singing Cicada today.
It has been a while since I photographed a White-breasted Nuthatch. I did just that yesterday and thought that I would share it this morning. And why not?
Imagine you are a young Downy Woodpecker, just a couple of months old. You fly to a suet feeder to get food to eat and suddenly get hit by another woodpecker.
I never thought I'd see an American Robin nesting in August, but I have. August in Arkansas should be too hot for robins to be nesting now. I guess it’s not.
Early yesterday morning, I had a handsome male Ruby-throated Hummingbird in my viewfinder. Suddenly, another hummingbird flew in, putting him on high alert.
Because of cloudy then scorching hot weather, I didn't get out to photograph yesterday morning. But the day before, I focused on a Fox Squirrel eating acorns.
After I photographed the Ruby-throated Hummingbird I shared yesterday, I focused on a hatch year Red-bellied Woodpecker with some kind of prey in their bill.
I finally have male Ruby-throated Hummingbird photos that I am happy with. It's about time, isn't it? He isn't a lifer; I've photographed this species before.
Yesterday morning, the Eastern Bluebird in Steve Creek's third brood fledged. We sat for hours on his deck, waiting for the one chick to leave the nest box.
I was delighted yesterday when I had the chance to photograph a young Northern Mockingbird that landed in a nearby oak tree. Naturally, I took photos.
It's been a minute since I shared bird images. Today I am sharing Tufted Titmouse and Carolina Chickadee photos. Are they dark and moody, or are they low key?
I was thrilled two days ago to photograph my lifer Inca Dove in the yard of my friend and talented photographer, Steve Creek, in Arkansas. I was beyond excited.
I'm sharing these seven Eastern Bluebird images that I took yesterday because I like them and because I am getting behind on sharing Arkansas photos.
Who knew that I'd be taking Carolina Wren photos yesterday? I didn't, even though I've been seeing or hearing them daily here. They have just been too skittish.
Yesterday, I took Common Eastern Velvet Ant images in Steve Creek's yard after seeing one of them on what I believe are Dusty Miller plants in his garden.
After I shared images of an immature Tufted Titmouse yesterday, I realized I hadn't yet shared photos of this young Northern Cardinal, taken earlier in July.
Sometimes I share photos here because they are simply so stinking cute. This hatch year Tufted Titmouse clinging to driftwood fits that reasoning perfectly.
I seem to be on a "chonky" subject streak lately including a chonky cowbird and green tree frog so I am continuing that streak with a chonky Carolina Chickadee.
