I grew up near Buffalo during the Sabres' French Connection years. I am always moved when I hear "O Canada." Remember going across the Peace Bridge and the friendly agents who wished us a good visit. Long ago and far away . . . #OCanada

This goofy-looking painted lady entertained me for quite a while, then suddenly started flapping its wings frantically. A crab spider hidden in the butterfly bush killed it. #butterflies #insects #pollinators #paintedlady

I honestly don't know how active I'll be here in the short term, but I think if trends continue on the platform-that-shall-not-be-named, my audience there will dwindle a lot & this will become the primary platform. If you appreciate my info/insights, you can help by letting folks know I'm here. 🙂
