How cool is this!?
Finally a butterfly at the feeder fighting for a spot among the bees.
It’s a Viceroy, not a monarch but they mimic monarch coloration as a way to ward of potential predators.
Last photo is a comparison between a Viceroy and Monarch

These bee floaties for your water reservoirs really do help!

So lucky to spot this guy. They hide well in the grass! It’s a Rabid Wolf Spider. It is named for its fast, frantic movements, not because it has rabies. This species is harmless to humans and beneficial in gardens as it preys on insects. I’m amazed it was still long enough for me to capture this.

I had no idea I had a Carrion plant until now since it’s the first bloom I’ve had with this plant.
Yes it’s called a carrion plant for a reason. The flower smells like rotting flesh. For real. 🤣
To attract flies and beetles for pollinating.

Yellowstone NP is magical and I miss every single bit of it. A red fox came up out of the woods one day and strolled down the road right in front of us.
