earlorfphotos > I took this damselfly photo at Long Lake Regional Park in New Brighton, Minnesota.  I haven’t been able to positively identify it but I think it is a female Hagen’s Bluet.  Note how the wings are held close to the body, which is characteristic of most damselflies.

earlorfphotos > Butterfly Weed is a bright orange, very showy wildflower.  It is actually in the milkweed family but doesn’t have milky sap like some of the other milkweed plants.  It’s usually found in prairie areas, often in sandy soil.  I found these in Long Lake Regional Park in New Brighton, Minnesota.  True to its name, it attracts Gray Hairstreak and Monarch butterflies.
