My photo belies the description in this article, which says silver-spotted skippers don't usually visit yellow flowers. The dark background is the blacktop on my street.

sparkling water

This little waterfall is just past the lower falls at Amicalola Falls State Park, in a narrow, rushing brook--or at least this year it was rushing, after all the rains we've had in north Georgia. It brought back sweet memories of a similar little waterfall I used to have in the brook at my weekend cabin back in New York. With Brava lying nearby, I would sit for hours there, with my back against a big tree, and just listen to the soothing sound and enjoy the sparkle of the dancing water.

metamorphosical meet-up
copyright © Mim Eisenberg/mimbrava studio. All rights reserved.
Though the gulf fritillary is common and widespread, it is always lovely to see them in my garden. The passion flower bush I inherited when I bought the house in '95 is where they lay their eggs and where the larvae feed. When they're ready they migrate off it to form their chrysalises. This year several did so on the side of my house, which is where the meet-up in these photos took place. Whenever the caterpillar touched the fresh chrysalis, the chrysalis raised its bottom off from touching the wood, in what could only have been a defensive gesture.
