Afternoon wander to clear the mind. 🌾☮️

A sea of orange, red, and gold blanket flowers with some yellow prairie coneflowers mixed in, lining the edge of a hiking trail and buzzing with pollinators, the flowers shining brightly in the afternoon sunshine.

A tall, dried stem of a mullein plant with a pretty, brown-striped, Halloween pennant dragonfly perched on top of the stem flexing its wings in the breeze off a pond in the background lined with cattails, grasses, and green trees, under partly cloudy afternoon skies.

A gentle hillside on the banks of a pond filled with blooming tufts and plumes of yellow goldenrod flowers shining bright in the afternoon sun, with a pond, green trees, and a slice of partly cloudy sky blurred in the background.

A grand view across a large wetlands pond — tall, green cattails in the near foreground and green trees on the far side of the pond, the still waters of the pond reflecting the trees, white puffy clouds, and blue sky, with the hazy outline of mountains in the very far distance on a warm, summer afternoon.
