It's picture spam!

Some pictures from my weekend at the cabin, playing with the new camera (although not being smart enough to pull out the tripod so they are all done hand-holding the 300mm lens...)

Hey, stoney321, I could use some help from you on flower identification... Is this Canada Hawkweed (Hieracium kalmii)?


Also Stoney, if you know what kind of flower this is? My inner zoology major dork is going insane at not being able to put the scientific name for it up on my gallery!
Bumblebee Bombus spp on a purple flower.


Summer Azure butterfly Celastrina neglecta


Dragonfly (there are so many thousands of dragonfly species and no good guide that I could find so there's no scientific name for this one...)


Now, on to the birds!

Coming in for a landing:
American White Pelican Pelecanus erythrorhynchos


And touchdown!


I'm pretty sure he's a Great Blue Heron Ardea herodias






And last, but not least, we've got mammals!

Eastern Chipmunks, adult & adolescent Tamias striatus


Muskrat Ondatra zibethicus
