douginhalifax.bsky.social @douginhalifax.bsky.social · 02/10/2026It has been a good year for monarchs. We have seen at least a couple a day here in Nova Scotia. Definitely up from last year. We still have 5 in chrysalis. It is getting chilly so they need to come out soon! 020
douginhalifax.bsky.social @douginhalifax.bsky.social · 25/09/2026She came out of chrysalis yesterday but it was chilly. I put her on the blue salvia to rest until the sun comes out this morning. She should be on her way soon. 100
douginhalifax.bsky.social @douginhalifax.bsky.social · 14/09/2026Mushroom spotted on a hike yesterday. Perhaps vermilion waxcap? 010
douginhalifax.bsky.social @douginhalifax.bsky.social · 17/08/2026We are seeing 2-3/day browsing our large patch of milkweed. 000

douginhalifax.bsky.social @douginhalifax.bsky.social · 06/07/2026Shadow was a problem child when we adopted him. He was 2 and had been in 3 homes. He would bite for attention and for food. It took about 9 months for him to understand that it wasn’t cool. He still bites sometimes when he gets wound up but it is rare. Patience is the key. It will work out. 020

douginhalifax.bsky.social @douginhalifax.bsky.social · 02/04/2026Thoughts and prayers for Shadow who had to get his belly shaved to have an ultrasound yesterday. Nothing bad was found 😸 #catsofbluesky #tuxedocats 040

douginhalifax.bsky.social @douginhalifax.bsky.social · 12/03/2026Shadow says hi. He is also watching the birds. 130
douginhalifax.bsky.social @douginhalifax.bsky.social · 08/01/2026Time to take a break from social media. Too much going on in the world. I need to stick my head in the sand for a while. Take care all. Here is a pic of a cat in a basket. 060
douginhalifax.bsky.social @douginhalifax.bsky.social · 25/12/2025Shadow with the best gift ever. A couple of pieces of tissue paper. #catsofbluesky #tuxedocats 040
douginhalifax.bsky.social @douginhalifax.bsky.social · 17/09/2025Shadow has the same problem. He makes it work. 010
douginhalifax.bsky.social @douginhalifax.bsky.social · 11/09/2025Another (better) pic of the 2 sisters resting before the long flight to Mexico. It was cool last night so they will leave when it warms up today. #monarchthursday 010

douginhalifax.bsky.social @douginhalifax.bsky.social · 22/06/2025We lost Ben and Jerry in 2021. They were the runts of a litter of 7 and their mom would not feed them. We hand fed them at the shelter before we could bring them home. They were with us for 17 years. 1550
douginhalifax.bsky.social @douginhalifax.bsky.social · 19/06/2025Out for a walk this morning and saw this little baby resting. Mom wasn’t too far away. 000
douginhalifax.bsky.social @douginhalifax.bsky.social · 15/06/2025An amazing organization. It was Shadows home for a while before he came home with us. 020
