I Spy Wildlife

You’re guaranteed to see wildlife any time you visit the nursery and garden. There are always hummingbirds and many other species of birds, bees, and cottontail rabbits. Butterflies and skippers are commonly seen feeding on the flowers as well. But it’s always a treat when we get to see dragonflies and this particular scarlet meadowhawk was extra friendly, allowing Mariah to capture these photos up close, without having to zoom in.
