Since 1/1/11 I have been describing what I see in the back yard. I occasionally digress.

Monarch
While hummers were still very active, I believe they were all female. Another hibiscus flower bloomed and I found a strawberry! The beautyberries were beginning to turn reddish. A bumblebee crawled into morning glory flowers that were already folding inward. The sunflower by the fig made a second blossom. Peppers were growing too. I rescued two skinks and a frog. The monarch butterfly visited the butterfly milkweed and earnestly decorated it with eggs, I think. One is visible on a leaf just above the butterfly. Duskywings continued to feed on the mountain mint.
