Ironweed Field

Up at 5 am and out the door at 6 to shoot bugs in the Ironweed Field off Akron-Peninsula Rd. I was out there for three hours without much to show for it, but it was a pleasant way to spend the morning.

And here are the bugs:

A sleepy bee..

 A snoozing praying mantis,  with a little buddy...

And the liveliest critter off the day, a slug spiraling around a stem.
