Trees talk to each other underground using mushroom networks. They share food, send warnings, and help each other grow. Nature has its own secret internet—called the Wood Wide Web! #NatureIsCool #WoodWideWeb #FungiFacts #TreeTalk #EcoMagic #WhatILearnedToday

Autumn beauty! The leaves changing is one of my favourite things about fall. Every day looks different. :)

Have you seen one of these guys around lately? The pileated woodpecker is native to Massachusetts, but needs mature forests with big trees to thrive. We're hoping to make this place a little more hospitable to this striking species!

The leaves are really starting to change in Ottawa. It means the cold weather is coming, but it’s so beautiful to watch!

A beautiful old tree with a very segmented trunk near the ground, but it’s still growing happily with lots of green foliage.

Look at this beautiful tree along the Rideau River! I’ve rarely seen so segmented a trunk, but it just keeps growing!

Oh, and the zebra swallowtail pids are also doing well, though OMFG they are so smol (compared to the monarchs and the BSTs. One of their parents egg bombed my paw paw tree saplings on the front porch, the beautiful, rotten, stinker. 🤣💚 #zebraswallowtail #becurious #getoutside #natureiscool

The boys are back in town! Look at all these beautiful paper wasp bois (this is an old hornet's nest; their actual nest is probably in the soffit). If I start posting pictures of me holding wasps, remember, don't be alarmed. These cuties are harmless. #becurious #getoutside #natureiscool

A new (to me) little moth in the backyard (that made itself all apparent on the garage door for a moment. A yellow-fringed dolichomia moth. That's a bit of a mouthful, so I'm just going to call her Steph. 😝 #becurious #natureiscool #getoutside

Do you know about or have the #milkweed that doesn't look, smell, or grow like a milkweed (other than the seed pods!)? It's not a monarch's favorite, but they absolutely can and will use it. Meet the #honeyvinemilkweed (Cynanchum laeve). 😅 #savethemonarchs #becurious #getoutside #natureiscool

A brief shower left some drops on the #Colocasia we have at the edge of the rain garden. I like big leaves and I can not lie, so you're getting photos of it.... 😜

We can't forget the magnificent air shrimps of the day time moth world, either, and we had both of our local species about all day; hummingbird clearwing and snowberry clearwing moths. 🤎♥️

We fought SO hard for these carrots; had rabbit problem and then a groundhog problem and replanted twice to get to today, AND, holy $h!t, we got a bonus with them. Black swallowtail caterpillars!!!!!

Good thing we have over two dozen paw paw tree saplings going, because I found a trio of these fine zebra swallowtail cats in the backyard this morning! 😄

This female green darner dragonfly was just exquisite (and I still can't believe she sat still for so long and even let me get away with this). 😍 #dragonfly #becurious #getoutside #natureiscool
