I'm really enjoying my walks here at Rose Pond in southeastern Idaho. Yesterday I walked further than I usually do, just so I could explore a little longer.
Here are some new pictures. I'll describe them for you.
1) This is my campsite next to Rose Pond. Camping next to the water is always a special treat.
2) The Snake River flows beside the walking path. Here are some fisherman I saw on the river.
3) A Tule Bluet (Enallagma carunculatum) damselfly.
4) Fisherman also fish Rose Pond.
5) This wildflower is Woods' rose (Rosa woodsii var. ultramontana).
6) I found a sunflower (Helianthus annuus) growing beside the Snake River.
7) Amur Maple (Acer ginnala) trees are not native to this area. Someone must have planted one here.
8) There's lots and lots of showy milkweed (Asclepias speciosa) growing here.
9) This is a close-up of an elderberry (Sambucus nigra) bloom.
10) The moon rising over Rose Pond.
Happy Independence Day, everyone! 🇺🇸
