I’ve not seen any #monarch #butterflies so far this spring but they’ve obviously been here. Spotted these two monarch #caterpillars yesterday on the one milkweed in my front #garden, a survivor that has regrown after dying back to the soil following our big winter freeze. Hope these make it to adulthood, the ones I saw last year disappeared before pupating.

Pictured: Pen Mar Park from High Rock.
July 14, 1983: Entering Pen Mar Park was a relief. In the years around 1900, this spot was billed as the Coney Island of the Blue Ridge, with an amusement park, seven hotels and about a hundred boarding houses. After years of slow decline, the park was forced out of business by World War II gas rationing in 1943.

Today on my walk I snapped this picture. Hard to believe that it was taken right outside my apartment.

My ground phlox (possibly Phlox subulata/moss phlox) has achieved blanket status.

I'm a sucker for mass blooms. A friend of mine has large swaths of this phlox & was kind enough to borrow me a cup 2 yrs ago. A cup that was 1.5' x 2' chunk that I then plopped down in a 1.5' x 2' space.

Easy peasy phlox carpet squee-sy.

15/52 Puddle Sunset
I really enjoy using this lens, changing the perspective, playing with the light. The other day, with the influence of desert sandstorms still visible in the sky, I went for a short walk in the beginning of sunset. This small puddle made me think of this week's challenge - water.

Is the #AMOC approaching a tipping point?
Here's my take after researching this topic for over 30 years.
Open access, peer-reviewed, in full colour & understandable for non-experts.

September 1, 1983: The trail down the far side of Smarts Mountain was in worse shape than the ascent had been, but what did that matter to a man surrounded by that kind of magnificence? The AT lunged downward across more of those dripping, mossy rocks.

Nature is the best artist. Look at the natural color of egg shells from different chicken breeds - just beautiful.

🇦🇹 Letztens hatte ich ja die Ziesel besucht. Heute war ein anderer Nager dran: ein Feldhamster am Friedhof Meidling 🙂

🇬🇧 Recently I visited the ground squirrels. Today it was the turn of a different rodent: an european Hamster that lived at the Cemetery in Meidling/Vienna 🙂

When the sun is directly over this stretch of brook. Quite sparkly.

#ClimateModels can’t explain 2023’s huge heat anomaly — we could be in uncharted territory

Taking into account all known factors, the planet warmed 0.2 °C more last year than climate scientists expected. More and better data are urgently needed.

Precis innan solen går upp börjar fågelsången fylla luften. Dags att gå upp och starta upp en brasa. Frusna fötter utanför myggnätet, krångla mig ur hammocken och in i daggfuktiga kängor, hugga ved och göra kokkaffe.
Myggstackare och bärfis på plockade blåbären gör upplevelsen komplett.

Havregrynsgröt med bärfisblåbär är en dunderkur mot stadsstress och digital fångenskap.

Rekommenderar det!
