It must be Thursday

You know it is Thursday because the lunch menu is outdoor grill specialities!

Seen close by on the butterfly bush was this lovely painted lady.

In the Japanese garden it is fun to look for toadstools.

In the wetland was this tattered blue dasher dragonfly, undoubtedly in its last days.  Also seen flying off was a little green heron, but alas no photo.

A fall webworm nest.  Signs of the changing season.
