This is a Silver-spotted Skipper. No, it’s not a moth; it’s a butterfly.

This is a Horace's Duskywing. It is a species of skipper butterfly. I don't think I have ever photographed one before.

What a beautiful Giant Swallowtail. Large and beautiful. These large swallowtails look like small birds when they are flying. Amazing.

This is a Narrow-winged Damselflies (also called a powdered dancer). Sadly the blues did not come out very well. That is sad becasue it was the blue that really attracted me to this beautiful creature.
This is why we both take cameras on our hikes .. check out the second photo. Teresa shot this one. I didn't edit it much ... so much color. I love this photo.

I don't know if you have ever attempted to photograph a Cabbage White butterfly, but it is really difficult. They just don't stop. This one did ... so you know what I did.
