Carpingdiem

Today was the first day in a week that the heat index was not 100 or more. As expected, there were a lot of dragonflies and some butterflies flying around.

The most abundant dragonflies are the blue dashers. They are small and the males have a blue abdomen, a striped thorax and big green eyes. Here is one clinging to a dried out flower, near the water of the pond.
The eastern pondhawk dragonflies are slightly bigger than the blue dashers. This is a young male, with a powder blue abdomen and some green in his thorax. The females are bright green.
A tiny pearly crescent butterfly visits a sunflower. The butterfly is about an inch wide with its wings fully open, and is orange with dark brown and black marking.
A tiny (1/2 inch) beige and brown butterfly, the zabulon skipper, clings onto the side of a lavender-colored thistle flower.
