Summertime Nature in New Jersey: Sourland Mountain Preserve.

Now that I am back from my Semester at Sea voyage, I went out to find some late summer butterflies. I didn’t see many butterflies, but did find more bumble bees.

Backyard Summer Nature in New Jersey.

Running Fawn. Images taken with a Nikon D700 camera and 28-300 mm lens. For the first image, the camera wasn’t fast enough to capture focus. Second image, the rear part of the deer was closer in focus, but I no longer had the full animal in view.
