Loon on Charleston Lake

Hitching a ride

While out canoeing this past Sunday, a dragonfly lands on Liz's arm and stayed for awhile.  She could see those little pincers working away - like it was trying to pick something off her skin.

Not sure what

Assuming this is a butterfly. (moth?)  It was inside our screen room and we couldn't find it in any of our guides.  If anyone knows, could you please let me know what it's called.

Landed on the garage roof and immediately fanned out every feather on his body and stayed there for 5 minutes just soaking up the sunshine.  I'm sure it feels much like when I am laying on the beach soaking up the rays without a care in the world, mighty fine!

Squirrel stops climbing up the pole when he sees my camera and poses for a picture. Is that a smile or just a smug look?
