A disc communes with cacti.
Because I’m a photographer, disc golf is more than just a sport to me.
Beautiful purple flowers make their presence known.
Although I love documenting my younger son playing, I’m thankful there usually are distractions that make me glad I’m using my Nikon 105mm macro lens.
I don’t want to know what these cicadas were doing before exiting their shells.
When the guys played at the Roy G. Guerrero disc golf course recently in Austin, the 105 got a workout shooting drives and putts as well as plenty of nature. The course features lots of trees, a bunch of exoskeletons hanging off leaves, and a few wildflowers.
Several butterflies try to blend in with a tree.
We saw lots of non-colorful butterflies.
I see you!
Most were on the trees.

While some rested on the ground trying not to get hit by flying discs.
A green bee on a thistle
Among those few wildflowers were beautiful thistles. This one attracted a green bee (I had never seen one before).
A skipper on a thistle
Skippers also liked the purple hues.
Skippers and thistles go together.
I came away from the course with an appreciation for all it had to offer . . . in terms of disc golf and nature!
