We went on a great walk this morning. The weather was beautiful - not too hot, beautiful sunshine, slight breeze...

We first went to feed the goats that live nearby (we give them grass). Then we went down a trail that goes to a bridge over the river near our house. I brought my camera and took some pics of the wildflowers along the way. There were tons of these tiny butterflies out all over the place! I haven't figured out what they are yet. They were swarming the flowers everywhere! They're also in our yard all over the clover that is blooming. Here are some pics from our walk.

Bee drinking from an Orange Hawkweed plant

We came to an area with tons of these orange hawkweed plants. In reading about them online, unfortunately they're considered an invasive species, but I think they're beautiful! The bees and butterflies sure loved them. Here's a pic of 4 butterflies on one bunch of flowers!

We also saw some common yarrow just starting to bloom.

And some yellow hawkweed

I will sure miss this when winter comes again! We need to take advantage of each of these beautiful days!
