Back in Ontario!

We had a very enjoyable trip! 12 days, covering 5,300 km! Lots of cool sightings! Great weather and very little wild fire smoke to deal with!

We took stretch breaks along the route. After crossing back into Ontario, a White Admiral greeted us at the car following a short walk to a wetland.

We spent two nights at my brother's giving us a chance to explore Lake Superior both by motor boat and Canoe! 

The rocky shoreline of Lake Superior was spectacular, despite the grey skies.

A walk along the rural backroad provided views of many dragonflies, including American Emerald.

Prior to leaving home on June 6th, I had only seen one Monarch butterfly. This individual managed to fly all the way to the north shore of Lake Superior by June 15th!

Wild Lupine was in bloom along many roadsides.
