(Tom Oliver/Wilton)That time of year when those delicious little grape tomatoes are ready to just pop into your mouth. (Jane Knox/Belgrade Lakes)The Canada geese goslings are full size and fly back and forth with their parents to get ready to migrate for winter. (Jane Knox/Belgrade Lakes)Now if there had only been a bird on this perch the picture would have been perfect. (Jane Knox/Belgrade Lakes)This fantastic caterpillar is a hickory tussock moth. Even though it looks soft don’t touch it. It will likely irritate your skin. (Elizabeth (Stu) Mehlin/New Sharon)
Wow, love that Baltimore oriole. But all the pictures are so fine.
Have a family of Eagles nesting in a tree across from my home. Can not get a photo of them too far away
Wonderful photos!!! Now I’m really sad that I didn’t get to come home this summer!!
Jane, the photo is perfect as is. Without a bird to distract, the weathering of the feeder stands out.
I grew up with that view of Wilson Lake.I played on the two big rocks in the picture for hours.It really has not changed for over 60 years.Thanks for sharing the pictures.~~~Russ Moody
I look forward to seeing these pictures every week and am impressed by the quality and diversity of all the pictures taken. Thank you to all of the wonderful photographers for a job well done.
Thank you, Pat.
I so enjoy the photos.
Once again – beautiful pictures of our wonderful area. Thank you for the snake picture – I’ve never seen a ring neck as they are nocturnal hunters.
