We finally got a chance to get back out into nature and take a marvelous walk. One of the first things we ran across in the park are the beautiful flowers in the thumbnail above.
These beauties were not too far away. After a long Winter and Spring, it was nice to see so many colors while on our walk!
Speaking of beautiful colors, we were very lucky to catch a close up look of this butterfly. I love the vibrant blue in his wings.
You may recognize this shot from my last #treetuesday post. I just love that the play area sits right next to the beautiful willow tree.
The views at the lake always make me happy. It is a very peaceful place to sit and soak in the surroundings for awhile.
I loved that the trails are over grown with nature!
We followed along the path until we reached the river. Listening to the water flow by was so renewing to the soul!
The humidity finally got hot enough to chase us out of the park and back to our air conditioned home. I did manage to get this last beautiful shot before we headed out though.
A big thank you to @ace108 for hosting the #beautifulsunday and to @c0ff33a for hosting the #sublimesunday tags each week! #treetuesday was initiated by @old-guy-photos.

A beautiful place to enjoy a Sunday outing, Deb. Willow tree is awesome. Love the 🦋. There is a swallowtail flying around the lawn but too fast for me to photograph.
Thanks @redheadpei! It was a beautiful way to spend some time indeed. :D
Looks like a marvelous and peaceful place to visit, just to decompress and find peace. Lovely photos!

Does look like a very sublime Sunday. I love wandering about in the areas by lakes and rivers. The green water is really peaceful, and looks inviting, though you might have to share the logs with the turtles. Nice capture of the butterfly too. Beautiful, and VERY cooperative. Mine are usually a blur of color as it wanders-winging off.
I really appreciated that butterfly staying put for that shot. I always find a walk in nature to be peaceful and renewing. :D
Seems like a good day out. clear and bright.
It was, thanks! :D
you're welcome
Beautiful park! Love the play area set up! But then, I am partial to big old willow trees! Gorgeous butterfly too. The blue is stunning. Too bad that it got so humid that you had to go home!
I love big old willow trees as well, thanks!
The photos were spectacular! I love your nature outings!
Thanks! I do too so I hope this humidity goes away soon.
Oh yes... the humidity can be terrible.
I have not been able to photograph a single butterfly. They quickly get away from me. Only the wings flit! It's a pity.
They usually fly away too fast for me too.
Such a wonderful Sunday you had, Debra! So relaxing in a wonderful park! And just figure the luck to capture this true beauty, a blue wings butterfly! Spring is truly a special season, show us how nature (and we) can rebirth over and over with all the splendor!
Have a wonderful week ahead, sweetie!
Thank you! I hope you have a wonderful week too.
Amazing nature photos! Beautiful butterfly and flowers!
Thank you @icybc!!
Great day out and nice to see nature blossoming.
Thanks!
Wonderful scenes of nature @debralee beautifully captured. That certainly does look like a very pleasant walk.
Thanks, I do love walking there.
I can see why @debralee. 😊
Perfect day for a nice walk even if it is humid. Lucky you for being able to take a photo of the butterfly. I think it was showing off its wings :D Such tranquil place by the lake to spend a day.

It is a tranquil place to spend a day for sure. :D
The butterfly photo is awesome, and I love the lake with the clouds reflected in it - such an incredible photo.
That river has a fair bit of algae in it though, super shot to finish with the reeds. A lovely day out, thank you for sharing it for your #SublimeSunday
