Was showing a client the rooftop of a new building at Hudson Yards today. This was our first look as we stepped off the elevator. So funny.

This is a rental building and this rooftop is quite spectacular.

A large white butterfly resting on a leaf on the edge of Coopers Hill wood near Brockworth in Gloucestershire.

The Large red damselfly is a medium-sized damselfly that lives around the edges of ponds, lakes, ditches and canals, and can also be found away from breeding sites in grassland and woodland. The earliest damselfly to emerge in the UK, it is on the wing from the end of April through to August. It is a regular visitor to gardens.

Parish Wood, Filey. 2017

 

I am delighted with this picture of two Large Skippers in Parish Wood. I love the colours, the angles, and the light.

One of two tiny Piping Plovers, in breeding plumage, dominating the beach. These birds are very threatened due to loss of habitat by predators and humans, that can ravage their unprotected nests easily. At some beaches, wide areas have been set aside to protect them. This small and delicate bird was admired at Barnegat Lighthouse State Park, New Jersey.

A favourite Eremophila due to having large flowers which the birds find irresistible.
