Ellie Kennard has movedPainted Lady visitorButterflies and bees love the open dahlias in our garden, though this year's weather has brought us more leaves than blooms. When the rain eventually stops, the flowers are buzzing and alive with flying and creeping things.Have a lovely Thursday, FediFriends.<a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/paintedLadyButterfly" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#paintedLadyButterfly</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/PaintedLady" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PaintedLady</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Butterfly" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Butterfly</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/ButterflyPhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ButterflyPhotography</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/dahlia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#dahlia</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/garden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#garden</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Pollinator" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Pollinator</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Pollinators" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Pollinators</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Thursday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Thursday</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/NaturePhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NaturePhotography</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Garden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Garden</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Flowers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Flowers</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/BloomScrolling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#BloomScrolling</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/FlowersOfMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FlowersOfMastodon</a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/EllieKPosts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#EllieKPosts</a>

Mike maɪkLast August, when I took this pic of a wonderful Painted Lady <a href="https://lingo.lol/tags/InMyGarden" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#InMyGarden</a>, it had been 3 summers since the last sighting here. This summer: none at all have made it perhaps because of what the jet stream has been up to over the european mainland & the UK. But I took a few pics last year, so I’ll have to be content with those.
