at spring , first leaves and first visitors
The Baltimore Checkerspot (Euphydryas phaeton) is a strikingly beautiful butterfly native to North America, named after the Maryland state insect. This butterfly prefers wet meadows, marshes, and open woodlands, where it primarily feeds on nectar from various wildflowers. The Baltimore Checkerspot's larvae primarily feed on turtlehead (Chelone glabra) plants, and the species is known for its complex lifecycle, which includes overwintering as larvae.
The orioles are back! I've been hearing the male for several days, but today was the first time I spotted him. This little lady is already busy building a nest. As happens this time of year, the Baltimore Oriole family is about to take over my photostream:)
The Orchard Orioles are here too. They are so much harder to photograph, because they always make their nests so high in the trees.
The Baltimore orioles were abundant while we were visiting. I hadn't managed to spot one in the US before, so I was extra pleased to see them.
Baltimore. Usually, this road is not busy even in rush hours. Today was a bit off from that pattern.
Baltimore Traction PCC streetcar 7113 (Pullman) on a Route 15 Belair Rd. run. This is Fayette St looking east between Charles and St Paul. Buildings on the left are all still there. That's City Hall in the distance. Thanks to David Pirmann for identifying the location.
