I like discovering. We enjoyed the Annual Garden Tour last Saturday here in Bear Valley. At one of the lovely gardens I saw a new-to-me variety of butterfly! This is a Rusty Tipped Brown Siproeta. They usually live in more tropical climates than this, so this guy was definitely out of his normal range here high in the mountains.
I like unexpected pleasures. We've had good rain all week, and we're always grateful for the precipitation. It refreshes the forest and fills the lake. The damp sagebrush and pines and cedars fill the air with sweet aromas. Rainbows are an added surprise!
I like success. Simba, our local young eaglet, left the nest this week. Good luck Simba!
I like change. The season is beginning to shift away from summer. The mornings are darker now when I take my early walk.
