I'm posting a couple photos today into my longtime friend @tattoodjay 's Wednesday Walk challenge. I'm unable to get out and do much exploring these days, but I wanted to show you a couple phone photos of neighborhood sights.
My Josephine clematis is blooming beside the front door. It's big showy blooms always attract lots of attention.
This is a blurry through the window shot of the fast moving mama red fox. She has a den with three kits under the abandoned garage that's over at the edge of the woods across the street from me. The youngsters are too far away to get photos with my camera equipment, but maybe when my kids come to visit we can get some shots with their superior gear. I can watch the kits playing if I quietly go out into the driveway, and my neighbor can see them if she stands on a chair and looks out her sunroom window! We hope to see them more often when they get old enough to be out on their own.
This is white wild Indigo. It is native to Wisconsin and is blooming right now in the open prairie areas. The pea shaped blossoms look quite distinctive against the gray stems and bees love the blooms.
Looks like it is going to be a hot summer day here in the woods beside the river! These white pelicans know how to stay cool!
These whirlygig. beetles were swimming rapidly together and disturbing the otherwise calm surface of river along the shore.
