no... no more snow

It should be obvious... I did not take this photo. I just think it's a great photo and when I hear we're in for another storm by the end of the week - with chance of snow - I thought it was appropriate. Where are those spring flowers?

Here's the story...

Last week, my blogging buddy Nancy of More Than Enough posted about a something called a hummingbird moth. I had never heard of it before but found it very interesting. Fast forward to my camping trip this past weekend.

I'm standing in a patch of wildflowers and thistles, taking pictures with my macro lens. Out of the corner of my eye, I see movement. I look away from my view finder to see this same creature flitting from one flower to the next. All of a sudden I find myself standing as still as I can because there were about eight of them fluttering around.

Of course, I can't get a picture of any of them with a macro lens. I need my zoom lens. I carefully back out of the flower patch, change my lens, and tip toe back in. I scared most of them off but a few stayed around and I was able to get some decent pictures.

They look just like a little hummingbird when they're in motion but more like a moth when you can get a good look at them. They were fun to watch and I'm so glad I saw them.

look at those teeth...

The last day we were in Alaska, we stopped in at a wildlife refuge. I posted the best pictures here on Flickr. There are photos of bears, fox, moose, and a bald eagle.

On our way home yesterday, from our stay in the mountains, we came across this little lake and took a walk around it. There were wild flowers everywhere. I wish my photography could do them justice. They were beautiful.
