  • The lyside sulphur butterfly is one of those highly active tropical pale yellow-to-white butterflies often seen flittering about patches of wildflowers and bushes, often joined by others butterfly species and bees, such as this one in South Texas in the Rio Grande Valley. This species is widespread in Texas and Mexico, and can be found in Arizona, Nicaragua, Guatemala, the Caribbean Islands and South Florida.

    Cloudless Sulphur (Phoebis sennae)
  • This very common large yellow butterfly is found across a huge range, from Southern Ontario in Canada to as far south as Argentina. This individual is a male (the female has slightly more of a pattern on the underside of the wings, but not much) and was photographed feeding on caesarweed nectar just outside of Naples, Florida on the outskirts of the Corkscrew Swamp.

  • A fresh, new western shelf mushroom growing on a moss-covered stump in an virgin forest area in the Hoh Rain Forest. Sometimes known as chicken-of-the-woods, this mushroom is edible and eaten by many.

  • A fresh, beautiful example of these vibrant shelf mushrooms growing on a tree near La Push, Washington just into the trees on Rialto Beach.
    Western Sulphur Shelf
  • A massive bunch of western shelf mushrooms growing on the stump of a dead tree near the Hoh River in the Hoh Rainforest. This is by far the largest growth I've seen, and even though it was a bit beat and old, it was still worth taking this shot, for just the scope and size if nothing else.
    Western Sulphur Shelf
  • These absolutely beautiful little sulphur butterflies are typically extremely difficult to photograph, but on this occasion this pair down in Cameron County, Texas in the Rio Grande Valley was more than a little preoccupied. The little yellow (Eurema lisa) is widespread and can be found throughout most of the eastern United States, southern Ontario and Quebec in Canada, and and all of Mexico and Central America.
