that is a neat looking bird.

 I saw one once, they are beautiful.

its that dang cloaking device she inherited from her Daddy. Makes her so hard to see. Good thing she has the transmitter. Her fella looks nice from what I could see.

I am Happy oh so Happy
Thanks guys that is great news 

I was just checking out the main cam and there is a light on the perch that keeps moving. weird like a little ghost bird. I watched from o8 to 11 and Ok so I'm  

(movie) This BC? I think it's a web but if you believe it's a    , then so be it.

yep that is it but it seemed more glowing live moves a lot for a web

I always thought it to be one big piece of flat ice. I can't wait for more pics. They have bars and bowling alleys and movies....(who knew)?

We all do know that Antarctica is a Continent (the 5Th largest) - a land mass with mountains and a LOT of snow and ice?

Yes I knew it was a continent. But I always pictured a few Quonset huts and a howling blizzard. You know like in the movies where you couldn't see three feet in front of you and there was a monster out there trying to eat you. 

this is really getting ridiculous pretty soon they will never take Christmas down. Grumble Grumble they should at least wait until after Halloween if we can't get them to wait until Thanksgiving. No wonder summer seems fleeting and winter seems to last forever.

What ever happened to the day after Thanksgiving? Oh, those were the good old days, (when Christmas meant something).

you got that right

who would of thought it would be so beautiful. Up until the pictures you showed last year I thought it was one big  snowcone with penguins

How was this discovered?

I'm guessing someone's on a road trip...   

Sure does sound like it!

Well all I can say is they better have taken their cameras 

Donna not all butterflies migrate. Monarchs do, not sure what others do. But for those that do its the last ones hatched born what ever of a season that do. They fly south spend the winter then they come north again and start the cycle over. Lay eggs, hatch become caterpillars, morph into butterflies, mate, lay eggs on and on until close to fall then the last ones once again fly south. What is amazing is this must be imprinted (or God directed which ever you prefer) for these guys to know where to go on there migration.

some butterflies spend the winter as caterpillars, some as pupa depends on the butterfly. Amazing creatures and beautiful too.

Thanks, BC. There are lovely little ones here called Red Admirals that have a habit of "hibernating" inside houses for the winter... usually in the folds of curtains, for some reason. Every now and then, on a warm winter's day, they will come fluttering into the room, leaving us to wonder whether to let them out (we do) or try to discourage them (how an we?). They must do what you have described, except they do not migrate.

I've never had butterflies in my house but I do get ladybugs every fall. I usually feed them on the window sill. They like grape jelly. 

I think we are all glad she and MAK do it 

or he could come home visit the nest box then we could all see him...


if you dream, dream big
