Karen, I just love your colorful town.
This isn't a very clear picture, but it's what I could get after chasing this butterfly from one side of the yard to the other several times.

And it looks like that car is going "uptown". What a colorful place to live, Casey. AS always your pics are beautiful and show it off well.
The closest I can come to an owl. My owl rug.

Anybody wanna name this butterfly? I have no clue.

Beautiful pics! Here's a collage I made with Shutterfly studio.

Just another view of the Grand Canyon.

Alisande, that butterfly is a Baltimore. Interesting info on it. My book says that they build communal webs around their food plant in which they overwinter. Unusual for butterflies. It would be easy to destroy them when cleaning up our gardens at the end of the growing season.

As always, great pictures here by everyone.

Wonderful pictures - I love this daily post.

Jayden is "beautiful". I know you shouldn't say that
about boys, LOL, but with those eyes, he is certainly
a lady killer.

Thanks, Gazania! No wonder I have so many of them . . . my garden "cleanup" is, um, a little sporadic. :-)

Country Bumpkin, that's a hummingbird, yes? Good shot!

Taken in Lake Placid, does anyone know what it is?

Could it be an allium?

mimi_boo,
I think it is a Star of Persia Allium. What a coincident that it was taken in Lake Placid. I am going to Lake Placid, NY tomorrow night with some friends to an outdoor concert.
