Saw this big dark bug drop straight to the ground out of the corner of my eye. I already had a camera in hand and when I went to check it out I found a Horace's Duskywing skipping around to the blooming Yard Mallow flowers. The yard mallow flowers bloom in the mid afternoon and I was accidentally standing outside just as they were opening. It was fun to watch this bug enjoying them!

After Elizabeth got off work, we went to the Oakmont Park. This is such an AWESOME park with some great limestone areas... However, it was really really hot, so we didn't stay too long. :)
