Colourful Bonfire!

 

I have not messed around with this photo at all. This is

what the treated pine cones added to the fire created.

Dog in the windowsill

This is where Pumpkin used to wait when I would take Archer on a walk. I'd feel bad leaving her behind, but also, a bulldog standing in the windowsill like a cat is pretty stinking cute!

European Peacock Butterfly!

This butterfly is not on the list of Vermont butterflies, yet it showed up in our pollinator garden on Friday! It is native to Europe and Asia and a few sightings are recorded near Montreal. I reported it to iNaturalist, and there were no other sightings showing in the States. Then, I learned that the first sighting ever in Vermont was on October 5th, 2022 in Calais, Vermont. There have been some sightings in the Montreal area since 1997. The species (Aglais io) was confirmed by two different online sites, so I'm pretty sure it's accurate. Such a great surprise!
