Man oh man am I behind, with all the kids home for summer vacation I've been so busy.
 Here's no. 3, in the photo a day challenge,  nature.

These beautiful desert wildflowers were on the side of the road one day as I was picking up one of my boys from a sleepover.  I love the way their vibrant colors pop against the neutral desert background.

Well yesterday I spent my entire day at the baseball fields so I'm just posting my day 2 on the June Photo a day challenge from likeabirdblog  that I decided to participate in.  I'm really enjoying this :D.  well here's day 2 photo, the prompt was "your pick" so i thought, since my day was spent at the ball field this would be appropriate.

For day 3 the prompt is "nature"..........

No. 1...

Here's my first post for my first photo challenge, the promt was DOTS.....

Butterflies like Kale too!!!  I love the blue hue of this beauties blue dots, she flew around my yard for a very long time, even resting on a tree for over 30 minutes, until of course I managed to startle her, but she didn't go far she landed right here on my Kale, and posed for a few pictures!

I did a little wiki research and found out the name of this beautiful butterfly, she goes by a few names but the North American name is "Mourning Cloak"  
What a beautiful name for a beautiful butterfly!!
Tomorrow "your pick" #LABJunePhoto
