Augusta Storm

[Hoss]

Had a pretty good storm go through Thursday night. Didn’t seem all that bad at our house, but Mrs. Hoss and i went for a walk at one of our favorite spots, Phinizy Swamp and there were several trails you couldn’t get through on unless you had waders and there were numerous trees across trials. We did manage to get 4.5 miles in and a few photos.

Mrs Hoss is a dragonfly whisperer.

Streams were up and flowing fast.


Lots of water


Butterflies

A few birds.

And of course these guys

Did get a close up of the one sunning itself. My what big teeth you have.

Also got a decent BIF shot.

Very nice! Wasn’t aware gators came up as far as Augusta, but makes sense since they are up the NC coast a ways!
Thanks for sharing.

I had a big dragon fly inside the screened porch, I scooped him up to put him out and found out they can bite! Had a slight stinging feeling for about ten minutes. Got him outside, he soared away.

They run nearly to Virginia, and up into Arkansas.

Nice shots! I especially like that heron in flight.

Looks like a great outing! And, that muddy moving water in that swamp ain't the usual!
