poor old peacock butterfly. (1 Viewer)

[Roger S.]

I was gardening today when a butterfly, it was a peacock, you could just tell this and he looked like he had been through the washing machine, his wings were all fraid and there was nothing left of him, he struggled around the garden for about 10 min and then fell dead right at my feet. Poor old thing.
mind you by the state of him , i think he is better of out of it.

Hi Roger

Awwhhh, :-C what a sad ending for the Peacock. They finish September time for hibernation too

Mind you, it has been a colder recently, and frosts are around now.

Not a good time for butterfly species to be flying around.

We are stardust, we are golden,
We are billion year old carbon,
And we got to get ourselves back to the garden.

Very autumnal Roger.
Never mind, it will soon be spring.

Thats spooky how you have just quoted Joni Mitchell, i have just watched her singing big yellow taxi on youtube. You must have know i like her, and was watching her.

Hi Rosinante/Roger

The verse is part of a song is it? I did not realise that Joni Mitchell wrote it?

It was a group that sang the song. I am scratching my head here at the moment trying to remember who it is?

The wording suits Autumn time, and the plight of the Peacock butterfly. o

Kathy,
Yes Joni Mitchell wrote it, but the group you are thinking of I think is Crosby, Stills and Nash.
I bet you have been humming the song all day.

Roger.

Hi Roger

Great song too

Still a few about, one flew in front of me this afternoon near Wrenbury in South Cheshire. Be interesting to see if we have reports of Red Admirals right through winter as we had last year.
