Life in the Ditch

More Canadian Thistle. For some reason, this makes me think of Phyllis Diller...
 

An unidentified Skipper--not a true butterfly. The antennae are spaced further apart and it's body is bigger, similar to a moth.
 
Named because of the skipping, flitting way in which it flies.

Pretty alfalfa. (I think....)
 

White flowers lining the road. I thought this was soapwort, but now I'm not so sure.
  

Another patch of....*cough*.....alternative agricultural plant-life, spied surprisingly close to our property.
 

A bunny--but then, you probably knew that. Loren went out to mail a letter, just as I was returning from my morning walk. The bunny ran from Loren, only to encounter me, coming up the gravel road. This proved to be quite the dilemma--should he run from the big, bad FedEx guy? Or the short, fat Ma?
 

In the end, it chose to run from me.
  

It's always nice to be formidable.
