Another Red-spotted Purple (Limenitis arthemis) on butterfly bush, Petersham, . This one is a little more intact and undamaged than the one in the previous post.

Red-spotted Purple (Limenitis arthemis) on butterfly bush, Petersham, . Wing damage is evident, most likely from a bird attack.

"Climatic warming is altering the structure and function of alpine ecosystems, including shifts of vegetation boundaries. The upward shift of alpine treelines, the uppermost limit of tree growth forming the boundary between montane forest and alpine communities, is strongly modulated by shrub-tree interactions. But little is known on the responses of such coexisting life forms to a warmer climate".

Couple of shots of our urban wildlife garden. It's been a few years in the making. Lots of native trees and shrubs for shelter and food. Wildflowers alongside cultivated roses. Hedges full of dog rose and honeysuckle. It's quite small but it feels like a little world now with insects occupying every square inch of space

"Ne'er cast a clout 'til May be out refers to the month", Clout is from an Old English word for cloth or clothing, and the saying was a reminder not to be too quick to put away the winter clothes before May is out and "May" refers to Hawthorn or May tree rather than the Month Of May

I just discovered this splendid hashtag a few moments ago, and I feel an instant urge to dip my toes into the stream.

So here is 's eruption of backyard joy from our always reliable .

I think this species is "W. florida" -- meaning "flowery" -- as it most surely is this morning.

This time of year the Chestnut trees and Californian lilac's looks absolutely fabulous. I managed to photograph them altogether. The sweet chestnut has the red flowers and horse chestnut with the white. In the foreground is the C.lilac.
