Hudson River Park near our apartment in October. A honey bee photo bombed my shot of the skipper and pulled the focus away. I enjoy framing the city with vegetation.
Hudson River Park
Insects
Greenbrook Wildlife
A visit to the private little nature Sanctuary in Tenafly, New Jersey. The beetles and spider are new species for me.
Mt Loretto Insects
In September we went to Mount Loretto Unique Area – NYSDEC. Here are some insects form that visit.
Jamaica Bay Nature
A small sampling of plants and insects.
Hudon R Park Fauna
The Gansevoort Beach is a great place to find a variety of insects. Mother duck only had one ducking left.
Conservatory Insects
I like to visit the Conservatory Garden in Central Park to search for insects. I didn’t stay long because it was late in the afternoon.
High Line P1100 Plants
I bought a new bridge camera, a Nikon COOLPIX P1100 with a 24-3000 mm optical zoom. It came out this February. It is good for travel because it is lighter than my my Nikon Z7 with several lenses. I tested it out a little on my way back from B & H Camera store. It is a replacement for my Sony Rx10M4 which came out in 2017. Sony is not making any updates to it or new cameras like it. Probably because they can make more money selling camera bodies and lenses separately. I’ll hold on to the Rx10M4 because it will sell for more that I paid for it soon. I did almost no editing on these.
WPR Insects
The first thing I saw at Ward Pond Ridge was a Cicada. I can’t tell which one of the hundreds of species it is. It is about 2 inches long.
