Purple-edged Copper : (Lycaena hippothoe)

At the tea shop in Deene Hall. Nice place, surrounded by things such as these, as well as a beautiful cooking range.

A second shot of one of the Small Coppers from my new site on the last day of the #BigButterflyCount - don't forget to get out today and count how many Butterflies you can see in 15 minutes

Went for a walk downtown along the Chena River with alaskanshelly. Never noticed the birch that looked like copper along the trail before. I love our longer days! Sunrise is 6:09 am and sunset is 9:33 pm. Almost fifteen and a half hours of daylight. We gain about seven minutes each day.

Spring, also known as springtime, is one of the four temperate seasons, succeeding winter and preceding summer. There are various technical definitions of spring, but local usage of the term varies according to local climate, cultures and customs. When it is spring in the Northern Hemisphere, it is autumn in the Southern Hemisphere and vice versa. At the spring (or vernal) equinox, days and nights are approximately twelve hours long, with daytime length increasing and nighttime length decreasing as the season progresses.

An inbound Freeport-McMoRan copper train drops down the hill from Morenci into the yard at Clifton. On the right, AZER 203 builds its train in the yard. The 203 would come out with the shuttle of two FMI copper shuttles - with less oppressive gradients, two B40-8s are able to pull what took the power and dynamic braking of 10 Geeps to bring out of Morenci.

On a blooming corn lily! The Sierra Discovery Trail on Bowman Lake Road in Nevada County isn't much of a trail, but it's got some great butterfly meadows.

These classic copper pots are in the dining room of Monet's home in Giverny. Although they are no longer used for cooking, there are enough to cook a fine feast for a crowd.

 

Happy Thanksgiving to all of my American friends, and a happy Thursday to all. Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for your kind comments, awards and faves -- I appreciate them all.

This was taken on a short back road excursion close to home. That is Old Rag mountain in the background.... easy to see how The Blue Ridge mountains got their name! Loved the copper roofs on this farm house and barn!

One of my favorite birds from our trip to Trinidad this month was the Copper-rumped Hummingbird. To our delight there were many hanging around the Asa Wright Nature Centre showing off their beautiful colors. This particular individual was the first bird I photographed on the trip, what a great way to start!

 

We will be doing this trip again in spring of 2019, if you think you might be interested more information is available here: www.texastargetbirds.com/group-photo-trips/2019-trinidad/
