The Avery Pyramids were constructed in 1939 by Axel Peterson, editor of the Avery Boomer newspaper. They are located in Hickory Grove cemetery in Monroe county, Iowa.

The catbirds are always pestering me when I’m out with the camera. I’ll pick a shady spot to hold still for a while and I usually don’t have to wait long for the harassment to begin.

I got some fantastic photos of the Avery Pyramids in July. Some great bird & butterfly photos as well. I had a hard time choosing which ones to include here.

    You have captured these Pyramids beautifully. I was at these Pyramids the day after Halloween after I figured out where they were and using my GPS. Wow, you are some photographer. I have desires to take photography up as a hobby.
