7-29-10 VERMONT: I mowed again yesterday cutting, or rather re-cutting, the paths in the pasture. I need another half day to finish. Last night we had a T-storm with lots of L & T, but no wind. The dogs were terrified, as usual, and become very cuddly. There was 0.8 inches in the gauge this morning. Let’s see—I put up a new hummingbird feeder, the old one started leaking, refilled the other feeders, weeded, snipped off a tent-caterpillar tent and fed them to the fish, picked tomatoes.
New blooms: black-eyed susan.
These guys will be Monarch Butterflies. They are presently stuffing themselves on milkweed leaves. I turned the leaf over to get the pic in the first two. The third pic is another plant with a different bug. The long horns indicate the front end, the three legs in front become the adults legs. I'll try to catch the cocoons when they happen. Nice color, huh?
