I hope you enjoy this pretty little butterfly that I took in my garden this past summer :) He didn’t seem to mind me poking around with my camera… I was glad of the opportunity! He didn’t stay long but I managed to get a few good shots! I adore the markings and colourings of his wings! Isn’t that red/orange colour just stunning! I’m very proud of this photo, I really love how it turned out. Looking back and my gallery from beginning to now, I can truly see how I have grown as a photographer and this fact makes me very happy and accomplished :heart: Certainly I have a long way to go yet, but the nice thing about this hobby is that I am very passionate about it. Hopefully some day I can do something more with photography. That’ll be so amazing! Thanks to the investigative brilliance of a friend, I’ve found out the name of this pretty butterfly! It is called “American Lady – Vanessa virginiensis” They seem to be common to New England, though I am guessing generally on the East coast (since I’m in Virginia ^^;) and are under the category of “Anglewings” Camera: Taken with a Canon Rebel XTi / Cropping, small hue/tint adjustments + Sig: Adobe Photoshop CS2 © SilverDew All comments are welcomed and appreciated. Full view is best! Random work on my RedBubble:

“SPOTTED TOWHEE” Pictured is a male Towhee The Towhee is familiar bird of scrubby habitats. It is widespread and abundant, increasing in some areas, but Island forms vulnerable. Medium-sized songbird. / Head, back, wings, and tail dark (black in male, female paler). / Chest and belly white. / Sides and flanks rufous. / White spots on wings and back. / Size: 17-21 cm (7-8 in) / Weight: 33-49 g (1.16-1.73 ounces) / Sex Differences Male has black hood, back, wings, and tail. Female is paler where the male is black, ranging from brownish to gray-brown to blackish. Watch a Spotted Towhee feeding on the ground; you’ll probably observe its two-footed, backwards-scratching hop. This “double-scratching” is used by a number of towhee and sparrow species to unearth the seeds and small invertebrates they feed on. One Spotted Towhee with an unusable, injured foot was observed hopping and scratching with one foot.

There are 59 species of eagle found in the world. Bald eagles ( 3-7 kg( 6.6-15.5 lbs) and Golden eagles ( 2.5-7 kg( 6.6-15.5 lbs) are the only two species that call North America home. Bald eagles are not found outside of this continent. They are Canada’s largest raptor or bird of prey, and are found in every province and territory. Roughly 100,000, (which about one third of the population) inhabit Alaska and British Columbia, particularly along the Pacific coast. There are also healthy breeding populations in the boreal (or northernmost) forest between Alberta and northwestern Ontario. There are smaller populations found on the East Coast. Some bald eagles call one area home, while others migrate short distances, either to breed or to escape the winter weather. Bald eagles live on the British Columbia coast all year round, and the numbers of eagles increase during the colder months. But those breeding in central Canada head south during the fall and winter. They migrate to west-central and southwestern United States and return only in the spring. Bald eagles, despite their name, aren’t actually bald. The name stems from “balde,” an old English word meaning “white.” Young eagles are dark brown with speckles of white, with dark grey bills and dark brown eyes. But, after four or five years, the feathers on their heads become white. Both male and female wingspans are about two metres wide. They can fly higher than 3,000 metres, at speeds of 105 kilometres per hour. When diving, they can hit a top speed of 320 km/h. Bald eagles eat fish, waterfowl and other small mammals. “PHOTO INFORMATION” / Taken on Dec 28/08 / camera; canon 40D / Lens; Canon EF 100-400mm F/4.5-5.6 IS L lens. / Exif; 1/2000’s at f/11, 400mm, iso 800, 6250 Kelvin ( white balance). / Photo shot in raw and edited in Lightroom2.

Featured in Snow! Glorious Snow!! on September 14th, 2009. On a frigid winter day this bright red cardinal certainly stood out against the snow. Especially since he insisted on hanging around long enough for an entire photo shoot. He was hoping for some seed I guess. (and yes he was rewarded). This image was captured in Lynde Shores Conservation Area in Whitby, Ontario, Canada. Taken with a Canon Rebel XS. This image was in the top 10 in the “Red and White” Challenge in Canada…”The Great White North” , and as such was featured both in that group and briefly on the RedBubble frontpage on February 2, 2009. The Northern Cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis) or Redbird is a North American bird in the cardinal family. It is found from southern Canada through the eastern United States from Maine to Texas and south through Mexico to northern Guatemala and Belize. It can also be found on the Big Island of Hawaii. It is found in woodlands, gardens, shrublands, and swamps. The Northern Cardinal is a mid-sized songbird with a body length of 21–23 centimeters (8.3–9 in). It has a distinctive crest on the head and a mask on the face which is black in the male and gray in the female. It displays sexual dimorphism in its coloration; the male is a vibrant red, while the female is a dull red-brown shade. The Northern Cardinal is mainly granivorous, but also feeds on insects and fruit. The male behaves territorially, marking out his territory with song. During courtship, the male feeds seed to the female beak-to-beak. A clutch of three to four eggs is laid, and two to four clutches are produced each year. It was once prized as a pet, but its sale as cage birds is now banned in the United States by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918.
