Misty Miller photographed a Red Admiral Butterfly in her garden recently.

After today's thunderstorms, we have three+ days of warm weather. We could see many more butterflies this weekend. We are looking for Painted Ladies, butterflies in the millions this year migrating north. Here's what they look like.

Ceanothus, wild lilac, has begun blooming this week, so I won't be surprised to receive photos of the distinctive Ceanothus Moth. Harm Wilkinson took the photo of the big moth. Bob Rutemoeller took the photo of Ceanothus in bloom.

Thanks to Misty, Harm and Bob for allowing me to share their photos with you here.
