I spent today in the backyard doing repairs on our deck. Kept a close watch 
on what was happening around our flower beds & managed a few photos.

The best ones were, similar to fishing, the ones that got away.  When I 
came out, I failed to immediately notice a Question Mark (butterfly) so no 
photo. Unfortunately I have never photographed one. Later I found a Robber 
Fly attempting to get a spider out of its web. As I attempted to get a 
better angle, it literally ripped the spider out & flew.  I understand 
Robber Flies have very strong venom so likely the spider was already dead. 
I did manage the following photos:

Ruby-throated Hummingbird
Long-legged Fly (2 photos)
Hobomok's Skipper
Goldenrod Crab Spider with victim
