The season is wrapping up. These Super Monarchs will be heading south to Mexico soon. So far, I’ve released 93. A few more are left to come out of their chrysalises. I may have over a hundred…!

Followed this girl over 12 days. My husband found her in one of our gardens.

This baby mantis came into one of my tents on a milkweed plant. It went right back outside!

Found a cat in the “J hook” on one of my Zinnias. Hours later, it’s a chrysalis!

Released my 8th Monarch this morning. I’m leaving some of my “cats” be since they are a vital part of the ecosystem. I have another 40 or so cats/chrysalises in my gazebo.

The way Katie Miller has treated this lovely man is reprehensible. How do these people sleep at night?

Well, I thought I was finished for the season, and box #2 has 2 bluebird eggs in it! #birds

Eastern Bluebird. Once my final nest box fledges, I will have 38 successful fledglings this season! #birds

Yesterday, this lone baby fledged. Mama started cupping a nest right after baby left. Then an egg this morning. Didn’t even get a chance to clean out the box. Haven’t ever seen that fast of a turnaround time!

My brother Nick never ceases to amaze me. This is an absolute punch in the gut. Especially converging this image depicting the backwards trajectory we are on with the iconic image from WWII when the tide was finally turning for freedom. Bravo, Nick! @andertoon.bsky.social

My Chickadee babies hatched yesterday. Both parents are working together to keep them warm, fed, and safe. So nice to have a camera on them so I can monitor without disturbing them! #birds

My dog has so much energy, he makes me crazy at times. But oh my gosh- can he be any cuter? (He also picks on our cat all the time- luckily, she has sharp claws!)

My first Bluebird nest fledged today and my 4th just hatched. I love helping these beautiful feathered friends so much! #birds

This is the quietest month I've had, possibly ever. I have a favour to ask, if you like my work, could you please give it a share to help it get in front of more people? Thank you :) #watercolours #birdart 🪶

I am so pumped! 2 chickadee nests, 4 bluebird nests (one with white eggs) and a pair of Tree Swallows actively checking out a box. These incredible creatures are the best distraction from YKW! #birds

My 5 percenters are back! How does a pair of bluebirds migrate over hundreds of miles and come back to the exact same box 2 years in a row? Birds are amazing creatures!

I’ve got an ornery Downy destroying two of my boxes. I’ve never had this problem. I put a 1 1/8” hole reducer in the entry hole to only allow chickadees in. I have a camera in this box, too. She must have done this quickly.

Bluebirds checking out all the boxes near our house. Still need to get the rest of my trail up.

Special Saturday Triad: What I Saw at the Battle of Minneapolis open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa... This is pure evil. Shame on the media for not shining a continual spotlight on this atrocity. Shame on the GOP for allowing this to happen.

Please write to these business owners headquartered in MN. Tell them to speak out against ICE. Ask them to support ICE OUT MN this Friday, January 23rd by closing their businesses in solidarity. They have the power to thwart this authoritarian power grab.
