Central Ohio NatureA Record Day
Yesterday, the 26th of September, on a long walk through residential neighborhoods near our central Ohio home and then along a city park bordering our local reservoir we saw more Monarch butterflies than we’ve ever seen in one day.
If we had kept counting the final tally would have been over 30 with four seen on just one small cluster of asters. At a time when their demise is often, perhaps accurately, predicted, it was nonetheless cause for real celebration.
On what seemed like it would be an ordinary September day in our “ordinary’ part of the world we found ourselves enchanted.
Thanks for stopping by.

Oh my gosh, I love the shot with the aster shadow on the monarch! Gorgeous!
What a treat.
I’m seeing quite a few here this year too, and aren’t we lucky!
Beautiful photos such as these encourage the rest of us to be more attentive to the nature which surrounds us!
