Some days its just worth getting up very early and seeing what opportunities Nature brings your way.

I always thought dawn and the sunrise here would be stunning and it really was.

We went to Turkey in April of 2016. I was incredibly surprised with what we saw. We visited Alanya, Antalaya, Istanbul, the Kursunlu Falls, Laodicea as well as the Green Canyon and much more. We were very impressed with the welcome, the friendliness and just the sheer uniqueness of the country.

I would have liked to have stayed much longer but you can’t have everything in life.

Vultures are exceptionally large, scavenging raptors with bald, featherless heads. Carrion is their preferred diet and vultures (often also called condors or buzzards) can soar for hours while searching for a meal. When a kill is found, many vultures may gather to take advantage of the same food source.

Both subjects were in a tree with loads of Turkey Vultures and a few Black Vultures mixed in.

One of the nice side effects of rainy weather is the increased colors in one of my favorite polypores, the turkey tail.

Butterflies primarily eat flower nectar, but they also consume:

tree sap and fruit juice.

Liquids from mud puddles, animal dung, and carrion for additional nutrients.

They use their proboscis to drink these liquids, which limits them to a liquid diet.

Some butterflies may prefer specific nectar-producing plants.

These food sources provide the energy and nutrition butterflies need for their life cycle.
