In addition to the Tiger Swallowtails, I saw a Monarch, a Red Admiral and a Mourning Cloak today but couldn’t get pics though.
I did get some nice photos of several beautiful Painted Lady butterflies in our meadow for #SaturdayOrange 🧡

My first butterfly photo of 2026.
My dad, daughter and I went for a two hour hike in the woods of a nature park in the Dallas area yesterday. We saw a Red Admiral, an Orange Sulphur, and this American Lady butterfly.

Appearing more like an apocalyptic volcanic eruption, this is a less deadly macro view of the inferno inside a burning vertically stacked hollow log (see video clip). The base of the photo is charred and covered with mineral droplets left as the moisture escaped. it appears much like the dark base of a mountain top. The upper two thirds displays the active burn of the hollow. The mix of white smoke, deep orange and red-orange colors of the fire burning from the inside-out. Red magma seems to erupt. It mixes with white smoke, yellow flame, and the errie orange, red, and yellow embers that are the walls of the log to paint a picture of volcanic eruption. Flame and smoke billow with embered walls filling the upper two-thirds of the view.

Working up to #SaturdayOrange (this is where it started). I probably should've been an arsonist, but Dad took me to jail when I was 5 years old. What stayed with me was the bicycle locked and chained in the cell. If they'd do that to a bike... IKR?

Still sifting through thousands of butterfly photos this year.
I can’t believe I missed this beautiful Buckeye butterfly on Autumn Clematis.
Happy #SaturdayOrange 🧡🤍

A dirt path worn into a grassy slope. At the top are The Columns (once part of the US Capitol). On either side of the path are trees turning golden yellow. The sky above is a cold cloudless blue in the late afternoon sunshine. US National Arboretum, Washington, DC (November 2023)

Good morning. It's very soggy and gray in my garden today, so here are some friends from Summer. #Saturdayorange #butterflies #nativeplants #gardening 🌱

A warm evening sunset over Soma Bay on the Red Sea. The sun sits low behind the distant silhouette of the Arabian desert mountains, casting a golden path of light across the calm water. The shoreline curves gently along the right side of the image, with a row of sailboats resting in silhouette. A few tiny figures walk near the water’s edge, quiet and unhurried. The scene feels peaceful and glowing, as the day slowly softens into night.
Sometimes the sky does all the work.
Unedited. True to the moment.

Harvested hundreds of zinnia flowers before the freeze last Saturday. A tiny Skipper butterfly wanted to avoid the cold too. Do you see her?

We continue to have a steady migration of Monarchs. I imagine more next week with the cooler weather up north.

A majestic Dolomite mountain massif near Alta Badia glows in the light of sunset. The rugged cliffs are bathed in a deep orange radiance, while the lower slopes remain cool and shadowed under a layer of snow and dark forest. The sky above fades from soft blue to dusk, enhancing the mountain’s luminous glow - a breathtaking alpine moment suspended between day and night.
For a few precious moments, Alpenglow turns the Dolomites into a wall of fire.
