Glimpses of Early Spring, NW Montana


I have gotten to see the great gray owls a few times
one day there were two together!
(one hunting and one in a nearby tree)


the tiny world of lichen
looks big with my macro lens


Spring Beauties.....
an early spring flower


a tiny pool where fairies bathe:


found a few yellowbells on a cloudy day:


extra petals on this buttercup:


Last summer into autumn, someone made lacy pattern on all the alder tree's leaves.
The other day I found these tiny iridescent blue beetles on the wheelbarrow handles. 
Looking them up, I found their larvae eat alder leaves. 
Alder flea beetles:

spring is a fun time to explore
the tiny beginnings of new and continued life
