Ahhhhhh! October!

Nothing beats fall morning walks. Here are few shots taken this morning. I was happy to still see several flame skimmer dragonflies still about and quite pleased that one decided to pose for me for a few minutes before flying off. :)

The Clark County Wetlands Park in Las Vegas


The Clark County Wetlands Park provides lush habitats for over 300 species of plants and animals while improving the quality of the Las Vegas Valley's water supply. The Clark County Wetlands Park includes 2,900 acres of water, trails, and trees along the Las Vegas Wash. My family and I enjoy walking along the several trails that are available. My son and I enjoyed seeing several desert cottontail bunnies, road runners, and many different species of birds on our walk Sunday.

Morning Flowers

I love apache plume plants. Such beautiful textures and shapes in the morning sunlight. The honey bees are loving the abundant langman's sage also!
