The weekend in review!

As you can tell, we had a wonderful time!  Before the rain reached us today, we managed to get in several miles of hiking though the metro parks and nature reserves.  No better way to spend our weekend getaway!  Just a few of the cool critters and sights we saw....

A gorgeous butterfly cocoon

Mini mushrooms (seriously, these were tiny!)

The worker bees preparing the hive...for the new queen!

The swan family photo!

The prince, just waiting for a kiss (but not from me!)

A little flying critter...hanging out on the creek bed.  I followed that bugger forever for this shot!
