Heritage Park Walk

A sunny walk through heritage park. I found this insect on top of a large rock next to the river. It looks like some sort of flying ant, but almost had a bluish color and was bigger than other winged ant species I've seen.

I also took a snapshot of some moss and a little fern clinging to the edge of a large boulder.
