Lake and Fireworks

 These are pictures of the Pumkinhook Carnival fireworks I think.  I took them off my front steps and am not quit sure where I am looking.

 Taken last night.

Canandiagua lake from the County Road 12 look off.

Too much time, Too few pictures

Butterflies

 A Tiger Swallowtail works around the Thistle.

 The Tiger didn't stop with one Thistle

The White Admiral made it's appearance.  Not sure if the the White  out ranks the Red Admirals (see 4 May 12)  we had earlier this.  They may be on different sides.

Deer Tiger

 Fortunately there was no breeze blowing so that this faun didn't get blown away. The inspiration for  of Sally Field in the Flying Nun?

A Thistle or Tiger Swallowtail.

Mourning Cloak

More Hummingbird moths

 Here are a couple more moths that I saw today.  This may break the spell that I only see ! moth per year for the past 4-5 years.

Enjoy

Clearwing

A Hummingbird Clearwing Moth.  This guy was about half the size of the others I have seen in the past at about 1 inch.  The others were the size of a Hummingbird and acted just like them.

The deer and rabbit

Forget the turtle, who's fast the deer or the rabbit?

Pick one ...

1.   Hey yuck!  THIS does not taste like Beer.
2.   Like my impression of a frog?

Bristol Mtn rain

It was raining so hard that I pulled in the Bristol Mountain Parking lot to wait it out.  I had to wait for it to let up a bit so I could see the mountain and take a picture without getting soaked.

Butterflies

 Finally a Monarch, as I listen to reports of them being further north in Canada than ever before

This is probably a Painted Lady or some Checkerspot

Happy 4th of July from my yard
