Dragonflies eat mosquito and small flies. That may be why you find so many flying around your home.
A beautiful 10 acre park with lots of walking trails and things to see.
You never know what your going to see next.
I took all of these pictures within 10 miles from where I live.
.
I will be uploading another set of dragonflies soon, most of which I took today. Keep an eye out for them.
Dragonfly pictures were taken in Northern Oklahoma, Ponca City, OK
I took all of these pictures within 10 miles of my home. Most of them within 2 miles away.
I use a Canon Powershot SX70HD. I shoot in the Mode, like art, It produces the vivid color in these pictures.
It has one lens built in, 21-1365, 35mm eqivalent. This a very light camera. Important when your 75. I dont have to carry a bag full of lenses around with me.
It is time to go out and get your pictures.
I live about 2 miles away from this ten acre Botanical Garden. It is a great place
to go. They have walking trails throughout.
All of these pictures are of the same eagle. About a week before
I was watching a Great Blue Heron with a fish when a juvenile
Bald Eagle flew down and took it from him, HOW RUDE.
Butterflies are everywhere here in
Northern Oklahoma. I took these
pictures at a Botanical Garden. I live
less than 2 miles away so I visit it
often. These pictures were taken in
the last few months.
the 3rd and 6th butterflies are swallowtails. The red spotted purple, do not have tails. They are one of
natures look alikes. Birds wont eat them because they look like a Pipevine swallowtail.
Well, I us the new Canon Powershot SX70HS. I shoot in a mode on the camera called Like Painting, hence the vivid colors. It also has a mode called Like Watercolor which I have not used yet.
This camera only comes with one lense, built into the camera. 22mm to 1385mm.
This is my 4th Canon Powershot camera.
I love it.
I am almost 75 now, I like the fact that I do not have to carry a bag of lenses with me. It is very light weight, a plus for me.
