I just wanted to share some of the photos that I have been lucky to capture of the nature in the Sierra Foothills. If you are interested in photos, please comment and I will respond to you by email.
Chorus Frog
We have this frog all over and the sound they make is “wreck-eck.”
Lady Bug emerging from the larvae stage
Lady bugs leave their larva everywhere! Here is a photo of one emerging from the larvae.
The Cut Bug Challenges!
Here is a photo of an intriguing cut bug that challenged me when I took this photo.
The Mosquito Hawk
No matter where you live, everyone has these guys around. I am thankful that their main diet are mosquito’s!
Striped Skunk
This little guy actually charged at my husband! We have had many run-ins with skunks up here!
Honey Bee in Broccoli
The honey bee is alive and well in the Foothills. Here is a honey bee taking advantage of us letting the broccoli bloom!
Black Tailed Jack Rabbit
This little guy who is in the center of the photo is drinking in the neighbors yard. We see them in the mornings generally.
The Praying Mantis
The Praying Mantis is hard to find but when you do it is a real treat! You can actually see them looking at you!
Our furry friend - The Tarantula!
We came home one night to find this guy on the frame of our front door.
More of these kind of photos will be coming in the future. I hope that you have enjoyed these!
