Mixture of Stuff in Hyde Park

Hyde Park Drainage Pond, London, Ontario

I went for a walk in the morning as it was going to be a hot day.
(27c, feels like 35c, sunny) I went through the fields for butterflies and walked the trail to see what I can find.

Familiar Bluet

Cabbage White

Great Blue Heron

I'm saying this is the Autumn Meadowhawk.

Clouded Sulphur

New England Aster

Northern Leopard Frog

Bluet sp

More dragonfly photos that could be Meadowhawk species.

Variety of Stuff at Hyde Park

Wednesday, August 15, 2018, Hyde Park, London Ontario

I went to Hyde Park in the afternoon. It was pretty warm. I stayed for about one hour and saw nice variety of things.

Bluet Damselfly sp.

Common Ringlet

Cabbage White

Song Sparrow

Eastern Tailed-Blues are so pretty when they are flying.

Many Common Ringlets today.

I saw my first Clearwing Moth July 26/18. I can't believe I saw another one today! I was fumbling with my camera trying to get some nice shots as it was moving from flower to flower. This is the best I can do. It could be a Snowberry Clearwing.

Double-crested Cormorant

Halloween Pennant

This is a very beautiful flower...not sure what it is.

I managed to get one photo of this flycatcher before it flew off. Then I saw it again on the walkway. Not good at flycatcher IDs but I think it's an Eastern Phoebe.
