I'm going to spend October of this year, sharing photos from camping trips that were taken in 2025.
I had photos I never shared and they are just too good to ignore! HA!
So WHAT in the WORLD is this?
A Great Blue Heron of course!
But isn't it one of the wildest Blue Herons you've ever seen?
I think he was proud of himself....
showing off for the camera.
I stood there in awe!!!
And that day, I saw so many beautiful butterflies too.
So let's enjoy memory lane
and photos from last year!
Do you like to look back at your old photos?
Sometimes I do....
sometimes not so much!
Love, Diane 💜

I have NEVER seen a heron like that1 What a fabulous photo!
That heron does seem to be full of himself, Diane. Gorgeous photos and I'm so glad you're sharing them here. Yes, looking through older photos can be fun!
That is one flamboyant Great Blue Heron! What a beard! What a show off!
Those are amazing photos with quite the wow-factor!
That's a strange looking heron. :)
Yes, I do look back at old photos often, especially when Google Photos brings up a slide show from "this day 10 years ago". Always fun! Loved the heron and the butterflies!! Happy weekend!
Wonderful photos and how great is that hair do? Thanks for the smiles and have a super weekend.
Hello Diane,
A beautiful series of photos.
I especially love the butterflies.
I wish you a wonderful weekend.

Diane your photography is amazing, had you ever entered any photo contests or had any art shows?
Gorgeous photos. These were definitely worth looking back on.
I occasionally go through my google photos to see what was going on
Diane, these photos are splendid, so glad you shared them! My favorites are the ones of the Great Blue Heron, looking like royalty. Peace of the Lord be with you, my friend!

Hello Diane :)
I didn't recognise the G. B. Heron in the first photo, but he is quite normal looking in the other photos and you took some grest photos of him and the butterflies. I rarely look at old photos.
Enjoy a happy weekend
All the best

Wow ... I never would have guessed that was a heron from that first photo. What a wonderful and rare perspective of this bird!!
That Great Blue Heron really is striking. Such a fun and memorable pose to capture!
Beautiful photos and definitely worth sharing! I love looking back at old pics.
Hello Diane,
the blue heron looks so striking in the picture haha... truly amazing in this pose. The butterflies are beautiful too. We still have a few butterflies now, but as autumn sets in, we are seeing fewer and fewer. Warm regards, Helma
The heron is more than cool.

What a character that heron turned out to be! He really looks like he was putting on a show just for you!
Thanks for sharing these treasures from memory lane!
Beautiful photos, Diane!
Hi Diana, excellent photos of the heron and the butterflies. Have a nice week. Greets Caroline
Diane, you have a wonderful gift with your photography and it's not just your camera. You spot things in nature that many of us never slow down to examine.
That Heron -- He's comical. Does he know how funny and odd he appears to us? Does he even care? His appearance sends a message about his personality. People do the same. Sometimes they are trying to tell us something about themselves; sometimes they are revealing things of which they are not even aware.
Then the butterfly pictures. How absolutely exquisite!! How amazing that our Creator God would put so much detail into the artful design of the butterfly's wings when all they do is flit about unseen by many of us.
It is the middle of the night and I am awake. A problem has awakened me and I finally had to just get up for a while. Seeing this butterfly's intricate detail and beauty has given me the reminder to trust the Lord with what baffles me, don't worry, and depend on Him to show me how to tackle things.
That heron is WILD! I think he is all set to go to a party and dance! My first glance was what??? And the butterflys you share are lovely. I noticed them on your header. Enjoy the rest of your week. Greetings from Australia.
Diane, these photos are fabulous. I especially love your header with the butterfly. Have a great week.
I love the heron photo. It looks like he has a flowing beard. :-)
Son preciosas, me gustan mucho. También me gusta ver fotos antiguas, aunque a veces no, por que medan tristeza. Besos.
Diane, your photos are absolutely stunning! And the heron is quite magnificent! Thank you so much for sharing.
Wonderful pictures!
The heron had an especially wild feather day. :)
Such beautiful butterflies. Great captures.
The butterflies and all the other captures are fantastisc. You should make a calender. I admire the good Photos.
Greetings by Heidrun ❤️
That blue heron was definitely more frilly than the ones around here! We have four in our neighborhood on the two lakes. One is itty bitty compared to the others. You are such a talented photographer. I enjoy your nature shots!
Oh wow! What a wild looking Great Blue Heron. Looks like a character straight of a story book.
