Cedar Bog
This is the Ebony Jewelwing....a species of damselfly. They hang out near streams and rivers. This one is from Cedar Bog, in Champaign County, yesterday.
They are metallic green, but can appear blue in some light. The wings of the male look all black in most light, but if you are lucky enough to see them in a shaft of sunlight you can see why they have the name "Jewelwing."

Red-Shouldered Hawks
A friend alerted me to a Red-Shouldered Hawk nest in Springfield, so I decided to check it out.
She said she was able to see possibly 3 chicks in the nest, so I was optimistic that it would be viewable and that I would be able to get some images.
The angle was perfect, and I was able to watch mom and dad deliver meals to the chicks.
