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

Mosquitoey
Before my morning meeting, a little green heron was sitting on the dock. Lots of leaves blew into the water and made Rorschach images. I visited the Berkley's Polypore and got thoroughly bitten by mosquitoes. The chrysalis was showing some wing color - fingers crossed that I'm there when it emerges. I found only one black swallowtail caterpillar and no monarchs. A monarch butterfly flew past the butterfly milkweed without a glance. The remaining Argiope seemed fine. A large silvery feather poked into the ground.
