A new butterfly in my garden, the Great Spangled Fritillary. The caterpillars will hatch this summer, then spend winter sleeping in the leaf litter under the violets they need to eat next spring. #butterflies #NationalPollinatorWeek #gardening 🌱 🦋

My relatives in East L.A. — born in the U.S.A. — are afraid to go outside because masked men with guns are randomly snatching people off the street. This is a government terrorism campaign against its own people.

#Photography #EastCoastKin #Stunday #Robin This 📸 isn't the best, but I share it because the moment brought me such joy. Life can be difficult, even frightening at times. This wee Robin, warbling away without a care in the world, reminded me that it is also good. Have a blessed & beautiful day! 🤗

Did u know? Around now,you might see the odd caterpillar wandering around,out of its normal surroundings - on pavements/driveways/roads.It's probably looking for a place to pupate.Pick it up with a leaf & pop it in herbage,where it'll be safe & can complete its lifecycle in peace.Mullein moth🐛🌿🌱🇬🇧🌱🌍🪲
