Lots of Green
I’ve photographed parts of this scene many times, often with alligators or turtles on the far bank. On this mid-June day there were no creatures about but if felt very lush with all those greens. And two red Texas Star Hibiscus.

Two Frogs
I hardly ever see frogs out in the swamps. Occasionally I hear a splash that seems like it could be a frog, but couldn’t swear to it.
Friday I saw two! This first one was perched on a tree stump.

And this fellow was all about the green: mustache, moss, and umbrella foliage.

Grasshopper at the Swamp
The trail that runs along the edge of the swamp at Magnolia Plantation often offers some interesting peeks at the little creatures.

I tried to see him from the other side of the leaf, but he had moved along.

Another shot with the 100mm macro lens.

The grasshopper had places to go.
