Let's Make Some Art, Dammit

September 1, 2022. Our milkweed plants grew back and at least one monarch caterpillar grew on one. So, not a total loss. https://flic.kr/p/2nM7zCM

July 12, 2021. This solitary monarch butterfly was flitting around our back yard today, obviously interested in our milkweed plantation. It was nice and warm in the sun when I took this photo, but I still had a bit of a post-vaccine headache so I did get out biking. https://flic.kr/p/2maPkmW

July 21, 2018 - Though our milkweed plants are still too young to flower (it takes three years) we are delighted to find that they are still capable of sustaining monarch butterfly caterpillars like the one pictured here. We have a nice crop of milkweed in the back yard andf are doing our part to repopulate them. P.S. bike is in the shop so I spent the day coding and watching the ball game. https://flic.kr/p/29hHHf1

September 17, 2017. I spent the day working on the Contact North paper. I really wanted to be out cycling, but work takes priority. On the other hand, had I been away, I would have missed this beautiful monarch butterfly in the back yard.
