Today there were many Monarch butterflies heading south. Some were visiting flowers along the way, while others took advantage of the north winds and flew by quite high.
This was also a good day to see a praying mantis since several were flying. They blend in so well with the vegetation that it can be difficult to find one even when you've watched it land. While the green form of the European Mantis seems to be predominant here, they also come in brown. (Bracebridge)
