The large soybean field was harvested a few days ago, but along the edges some dandelions have survived low temperatures and are still attracting butterflies (variegated fritillary).

Just off one of the back roads in Central New Jersey, there was a field full of these yellow flowers. A few of them were naturally in an arrangement with the white ones.

There's an area in our back yard that we've let grow with minimal trimming. Here's a wildflower I'd never seen before this afternoon. When I found out it's Velvetleaf, it wasn't a surprise also to learn that it's non-native and considered invasive.

Once that had happened, I wrote to Mr. Lehrer with a copy of the paper and a letter asking if he had ever gotten in trouble for it.
He kindly wrote back, including a copy of the paper that had been published in Journal of SIAM in 1958, under a slightly different title. Nobody, he said, caught him.

In our yard, we have lavender, oregano, and lots of volunteer catnip, all of which attract lots of bees.

So, it's okay for a cat to run away and hide under the bed when visitors come, but,
when I do it, it's "rude" and "antisocial."

Hips is filling in at the front desk, although he doesn't look enthusiastic about it. If someone reads him the "Cat of the Month" story (in which he was one of those CotMs), that should help perk him up. Hips lives at Tabby's Place. #Cats #CatsofBlueSky www.tabbysplace.org/hipso-facto/
