For a complete
change, I’ll showcase the wildlife around the Atlanta area. The Piedmont region of the Southeast US includes north Georgia and Alabama in the southern reaches of the Appalachian mountains. I am illustrating
some of the showier specimens I have seen in recent weeks. Yellow, white and purple
are common flower colors.
Wild
yellow sunflowers are bright spots in rural roadsides and cleared areas.
Purple
asters are popular with butterflies.
I watched several butterflies visit one
clump of purple asters in a sunny corner of the garden.
The
Gulf Fritillary is a large orange butterfly.
The
Common Buckeye with its large spots can be cryptic against the leaf litter. Can you see it?
