The tiny Fragile Forktail Damselfly is about 3/4โ€ long and is native to eastern North America. He seemed very curious in the gigantic camera looming above him ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ“ท๐Ÿ‘‹

If I were to create a mythical beast, it would have teeth and a mouth just like this ๐Ÿ˜… Shout-out to the birds and squirrels responsible for these volunteer sunflowers right outside my window. Flowers are my muse! ๐ŸŒป๐Ÿ’›โœ๏ธ

Who doesnโ€™t love a good oozing and drippy fungus for ? I think this a Blushing Rosette which sounds a whole lot less gross. ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ’•

Found this little chonk of an American Toad in my yard the other night. American toads can live up to 30 years and they are driven by habit and familiarity so once they find a spot they like, they tend to stick around. This little one is part of the family now! โ˜บ๏ธ๐ŸคŽ

I havenโ€™t kept up with recently so hereโ€™s some Raspberry Slime Mold for you, a day late. This mold can be found across Europe and North America on the damp wood usually on the forest floor. Despite the name, I donโ€™t think theyโ€™re super tasty or particularly good for you so maybe leave these little ones off your foraging list ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ„

This Great Spangled Fritillary was sporting only one antennae but thatโ€™s enough to get the job done! These native North American butterflies are widespread and prefer to use violets as their larval host plants of choice. Love these beauties! ๐Ÿงก

I will forever be a fan of the center of an echinacea! A true representation of the Fibonacci sequence in nature and the most efficient way for this flower to grow ๐Ÿงฎ๐ŸŒ€๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ˜

Waterfalls are a treasure trove of texture, light, movement, and life, and therefore I will go chase them! (But to be fair, even the rivers and lakes Iโ€™m used to provide interesting scenes as well!) ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿค

Lucileโ€™s Glory of the Snow is part of the asparagus family and named after the wife of the Swiss botanist Pierre Boissier. They are naturalized here in North America and theyโ€™re a lovely little pop of color in the brown leaves of the forest floor. ๐Ÿ’œ๐Ÿ‚

If youโ€™ve followed my Instagram for a while youโ€™ll know that Iโ€™m a sucker for hearts in nature, and I love to see them. (Yeah, yeah, pattern recognition and all that.) I prefer to think of them as little reminders that there is still a lot of love in the world, especially when surrounded by nature. I saw this little one on Valentines Day ๐Ÿ˜Šโค๏ธ๐Ÿชจ
