July 22, 2015 I'm going to start today to record on a daily basis whatever happens to strike my fancy. So, it is a very cool breezy day. I just posted 5 short book reviews to The Monthly Reading Challenge. I'm suppose to put away some winter wood today from the woodpile outside but I'm playing hookey from work to write so starting this blog will get done. I'm having a daily fight with a flock of English Sparrows that are trying to take over my barn. They are making a terrible mess so they have to go. I have destroyed several nests so far they don't leave but they get out of the barn when I am around. I'm just starting the fight so I guess I don't know how far I have to go to discourage them. I'm trying not to spread myself to thin on WDC because I find so many things that are interesting here and I am trying to work on a new story. I really enjoy sitting at my desk with a cup of tea and reading blogs on WDC. |
| Day 3454: March 27, 2024 Prompt: “Butterflies are self propelled flowers.” Robert A. Heinlein   Butterflys are special. They come in so many different sizes and colors. They are a joint legged invertebrate. Because of their six legs they are also an insect. If you really want to find different varieties of butterflies in the North Eastern USA, go out early in the morning. LIke the birds they are flying and taking care of business in the moist air of late dawn to early noon. Crocheted butterflies make good book markers. If you crochet you know there are a lot of patterns in circulation for Butterflys. The national Audubon Society has a field guide for butterflies. It contains 1,014 images of Butterflys, caterpillars, and chrysalises. On walks my dogs will chase a butterfly or moth if it flutters by. The fluttering flying movement they exhibit excites other animals. When the snow came back the insects stopped buzzing outside. I wonder what affect the eclipse will have on the weather and on the insects and birds. Guess I better look it up. Have a good day. ![Merit Badge in Friendship
