More pictures from the Atlanta Botanical Gardens from our trip in June.
We got there right when it opened on a weekday and there wasn’t too many other people there. Luckily as we walked through the front section a Mom with her babies walked right by. I was able to get a couple of shots before they headed into the bushes.
I saw several eastern towhees. They were not skittish at all. One landed on the sidewalk right in front of me.
The gardens have the most fabulous green frogs when you can find them. On my last trip here (November 2022) I couldn’t find any. This trip there were a lot of them in the big lotus and lily pond in front of the orchid building. I’m sure they keep the mosquitoes down.
There was also a turtle peeking out.
A dragonfly on a lotus bud.
The orchid/rainforest building is on the left with a few buildings in Midtown in the middle.
Walking down the elevated canopy walk.
I love all of the little creatures!
What a terrific place to explore!
All the images are great but the phrog photos — phabulous!
Great captures. Love the frogs on the pond! Cute ducks and nice to see the towhee. I only get the towhee once in a while.
I was looking forward to reading about the Kermits as soon as I saw your icon on linkup page! You got some really cute pictures — not as easy to *see* green on those pads as it is for Kermit to be that color ))…. I’m glad you have such a good eye. And the birds are wonderful. My two bloggy goals for tomorrow: catch up on this one and learn more about PhotoScape. Thanks for both!! Sallie (FullTime-Life)
