Hello Readers! I need your help! I have some photos that I took that I have not shared due to the difficulty I am having identifying the subjects! I would love it if our readers would help me identify these creatures so I can put the proper names for them in our slide show! Remember that these photos were taken in Michigan in case you want to look up a species for identification.
One of my main things is to go outside and just take pictures of the interesting things I see or wildlife found. I have hundreds of photos like this. This first photo is of a butterfly that was resting on the trunk of a tree (Photo taken July 10, 2009), notice the coloring of the wings and the bark are similar if I hadn't seen it land I probably never would have noticed it there:
Another photo I took of a Dragonfly resting on a blade of grass in a field (Taken July 10, 2009):
Last but not least, a small turtle that was trying to cross a very busy road that we intercepted while on a walk (Photo taken on June 20, 2009):
To give you an idea of the turtle's size:
So what do you think? Just reply to this post and let us know what species/type of wildlife you think are in these photo's. If you have a link to a website or book you found the species in, please cite them so we can take a look and see what you came up with! I would love to add these photo's to our slide show:) If this Identification project is successful, maybe I'll do this again in the near future as a regular thing. I would love to have you all join the discussion!
Thank you all!
Sincerely,
Khrys @ GreenSpot-On
