I’m getting out of order. These pictures are from Sawgrass Lake Park on an early morning in mid June.

A rooster. Not a creature of stealth, although perhaps an escape artist. This one looks more like a Black Copper Maran than a Rhode Island Red to me, although the former seems to be a pretty rare breed in the US.

A Phoebis, maybe a Cloudless Sulphur butterfly. These usually are very flitty and rarely land.

I really liked the lighting on this tricolored heron
