It’s kind of surprising how many bugs I find in flowers eating pollen that aren’t bees. And they always seem kind of slow and blissed out. Does pollen get bugs high? Is that even possible?

It’s like something from another world. I might Roundbottom-ize this one.
Photowalk: Coyote Ridge
Located 15 minutes south of Fort Collins, Coyote Ridge is a natural area consisting if a couple hundred acres of prairie. A trail runs from the road up across several ridges. Today, I walked to the base of the second ridge before coming back. I’ll make the full hike to the end some time in the future.
The weather today was overcast and gloomy, so my camera was straining with the available light. Still, I took a few nice photos. Here’s the walk from start to finish, with narration and seventeen photos:

The new lens is a pretty darned good macro lens, actually. I guess one upside to being laid off is that I can make my early morning photography expeditions every day of the week now instead of just on the weekends. Maybe I’ll start posting more than one photo a day.

This is not a full frame–it’s a bit of a crop, as I’m still shooting with my 45-150mm. The 70-300mm shipped today and should arrive on Wednesday. I’m going to rush straight from work and out to the ponds, so long as the storms that the forecast calls for do not materialize. I love a good storm, but not on the day I finally get my wildlife photography lens!
