Ya, I've not been on here in a few days and it looks like I'm gonna be tied up at this time slot for at least until the severe cold snap is over because I'm entertaining a few weather refugees at this time. #butterflies
Keeping 'em sheltered until I can release them:
Female #GiantSwallowtail
Male #Monarch
Male #EasternBlackSwallowtail

The monarch is gonna get concierge limo service to a main migratory route located at a major creekbed so that it can make it to Texas in the few warm days we have in the forecast, where it'll find late blooming nectar sources. The other two don't migrate and they'll be living their best lives until they can't. I'll also bend over backwards to see to the survival of the nectar blooms in the yard so that they don't freeze because #PaintedLadies are still coming through here.

Painted Ladies

This is an image of the famed "Painted Ladies" at Alamo Square in San Francisco. They have been seen in the movie "Misses Doubtfire", the show "Full House" and many other televised shows.
They truly are a sight to see, as if they are all standing in front of an audience waiting to be judged. Downtown San Francisco serves as the background.

Painted Ladies & Housing

This photo says so much. Often high density housing projects are opposed because some say it does not fit the aesthetic of the homes in the area. Clearly apartment buildings can co-exist with historic homes in SF. #PaintedLadies #SF #housing #YIMBY
