I don't know about any of you guys and gals, but i'm ready for spring to get here! So i thought i would start a photography thread consisting of warm weather photos. First is a Red Spotted Purple butterfly which i took first place with in the native wildlife division at the Marshall County Conservation Board anual photo contest last week.   If you want to check out more of my artwork and photography i'm on Facebook under Larry Holden Art and Photography.

Here is a windmill at sunset. It took an honerable mention in the scenic division.

Stunning shots of the insects!  I'm an entomologist for the California Department of Food and Agriculture. Your Red Spotted Purple is on Anise?

No i think its on a variety of wild mustard. That stuff grows wild all over the ditches here in Iowa in the summer. I know when i was a kid the pollen off it would burn my skin and make me blister up.

How about anyone else, have some pictures to share??

I took these this morning.  I love peach blossoms.







The quince is also looking nice


And the wild jasmine is smelling wonderful
