Special moment in 3.32 am in Mid-Summer. One of the magical nights of Finland.
Part of my long running project about this place. Check out the whole Project Koski -album.
Another year and by Mid-May the color in my garden is extraordinary. I wish the color lasted year round. The upkeep can really get overwhelming at times. I feel that early in the morning and late afternoon the beauty makes all this work worthwhile. Thanks for viewing my work. Stay safe. Be kind to everyone you see today.
Beautiful Mourning Cloak absorbing the heat from some filtered forest sunlight.
Uncommon early Spring butterfly. It over-winters and emerges as the first butterfly of the season, usually late March to early April. It does not nectar. Instead, it takes nourishment from sap seeping from an occasional tree branch wound.
My earliest sighting of a BF, ever. Probably due to the unseasonably warm weather over the last week. Today, we are enjoying sunny 65F temps with very light breeze.
Keep in mind that Punxsutawny Phil has decreed another six weeks of winter. As such, it's turning rainy and colder tonight, so it might be some time before another critter like this one takes the stage.

In this post-dogfight photograph, Wing Leader Esmerelda "Granny" Berkowitz hastily stitches together the tail of Captain Noddington "Warlock" Schmooz's Spitfire, escorted under the watchful wands of several other members of the 509th.
The exact same location and very slightly different composition as a previous image, this time a few hours later in the day. The first one was taken just before dawn, this one at mid morning.
It goes to show just how transformative light is when it comes to landscape photography.
Just making coffee time and found this Sparrowhawk had made a kill of a Starling. Only way of getting a picture without reflections in the glass was to go to a bedroom and slowly open the window hence the angle.
Both of them were hunting in the marsh near W. Dyke trail, fighting in between. Out of many pictures this is the only one I could post.
Many thanks to all those who view, fav or comment my pictures. I very much appreciate it.
....as the river cuts through a highly scenic and picturesque gorge, replete with sheer walls that rise hundreds of feet with unusual rock formations.
