Instead of heading west to the Rockies, we decided to check out Horseshoe Canyon Conservancy area for a little hike. Descending into the canyon, we did a tiny bit of elevation, and the landforms were wonderful. Recommended for an interesting short walk.

I met these two ladies in the Camassia Natural Area. One of them, Gail, was wearing a camas colored dress and had visited the park three times this week! We talked about Mt St. Helens exploding and working on our tans and osprey and Bhutan. They were a lovely part of my time at the Camassia Natural Area. I felt lucky to be here on a Friday with almost no one else here.
A late start on today's adventure turned out to be a better than I thought. This is a late day view of the pond at Green Swamp nature preserve in Brunswick County, NC. If I had arrived any earlier, the light would have been too harsh plus the clouds were late comers to the party. PS: that's my shadow in the lower right corner.

When I visited the Green Swamp in early May, the leaves on all the Venus Flytrap plants (Dionaea muscipula) were young and fresh. If you look carefully, you can see trigger hairs on the inner surfaces of the traps. (These are far less obvious than the "fingers" along the margins of the leaves.) When an insect walks into the trap and bumps into a trigger hair, the trap closes.
The Green Swamp is located near Wilmington, North Carolina.
Shot from the bridge over Johns Pass, Treasure Island Fl., with a Nikon D5100 and VR DX AF-S Nikkor 55-300mm Zoom Lens. by Michael A. Mayo
The second of two quick shots taken from the Johns pass bridge, of a pelican gliding into a landing, an instant before becoming just another bird floating on the water below. With camera set on auto, this is simply another point and shoot moment. No editing or cropping done, except for a 2 click darkening and sharpening for a little something extra. Just quick framing and single shutter release. The camera did the rest. Quite often you have to just trust in your equipment to capture that which suddenly unfolds before you.
