Decided to hit the road before sunrise and do a photo shoot hike in the Jewel of the Creek on the Dragonfly trail. I had been up there a few weeks back on a meetup hike and found that there was a prolific amount of butterflies and maybe a few dragonflies. Sunrise temps were below 80! Finished the trip at about 85. Even with those seemingly low Arizona temps, the humidity must have been 110% and quite uncomfortable. Luckily, I found my fill of somewhat cooperative butterflies and a couple of relatively patient dragonflies who allowed me the pleasure of capturing their beauty. I was hoping that some larger wildlife might be mulling about, but alas, I was the only large predator on the trail this morning.
