I live across the St Croix from Maine and it’s shaping up to be an epic year for fall foliage as it’s been a lot wetter this year, than last year.

Weccacoe Playground had some scraggly roses on the Catherine st side and one was a gorgeous salmon color. I used to walk my dog by there in the mornings and admire it. I found it uprooted and tossed aside one morning in 2021. I was so bummed.

We have white deer in New Brunswick. I caught up with the almost all white one, and another person I met walking had a picture of a different one!

Very sorry about the sting. About a week ago I noticed a wasp nest under my patio table and it’s huge. Did some research and found they get abandoned in late fall and are not used again. I’m going to leave mine as and let nature take its course because of this nest’s size.

I left a spectacular pollinator garden that I created over 4 years. Last summer I had a Monarch butterfly factory.

When I visited there in 2017 they had another orphan giraffe. That one made friends with the elephants.

It really was. And getting to go 2 days in a row just about finished me! Saw the babies running back to the camp after being out in the park and it was just so sweet and those keepers are the best. It’s a magical place. They were also housing an orphaned giraffe at the time.

I’ve been there and it’s amazing!! Went on a safari trip in 2017 and as a donor I was able to get into the Nairobi nursery and we also went as part of the trip (didn’t know that was part of it prior to going). So glad I went!!!! This pic is the baby I fostered.

Getting to have this view took my whole life, and unacceptable political instability. I left what I thought was my final home, where I created a magical Monarch butterfly-producing garden full of native perennial pollinators including flowering trees, but no peace of mind. I can rebuild a garden.

Gardening is a gateway drug to birding. I am now the owner of 4 bird feeders and regularly buying the 40 lbs bags of black sunflower seeds. And here’s my most unusual visitor -

I’ve had pretty much every major category hair color but my mother always said I should go lighter. My hair has turned the whiter version of gray and I have to say begrudgingly that she was correct.

My cat (tbf, she’s a tripod) took a year of observing my Airedale before she would engage. She initially jumped around on furniture to avoid the very enthusiastic dog but finally they are friends.

Where in New Brunswick?? I’m on the very west coast, near St Andrews, and look west over the St Croix so I’ve got beautiful sunsets but haven’t seen anything like this at sunrise. Here’s my Wolf moon Friday night, looking east.

my husband and I lost Marvin about a month ago. My husband had him for years, but he'd lived a tough life before he got rescued and then adopted. He enjoyed sleeping in sun puddles and drinking lots of fresh water. I hope you're running free, little Marvin, we miss you!!

I got the chance to visit the nursery in Nairobi in 2017. I’d fostered many orphans over the years and always wanted to visit but never thought I’d get the chance. It was amazing watching the babies return from being out in Tsavo park at the end of the day and return to their stockades.
