| Species: Nymphalis vaualbum Compton Tortoiseshell. One that overwinters, and is rare! It was verified at BAMONA! |

| This might be a successful rhododendron year! I've killed several plants. SIGH. Left several behind at other homes. |

Nice sighting of the Phoebe and the pretty butterfly.. The crocuses are beautiful. Lovely signs of spring. Thank you for sharing and linking up your critters, have a happy weekend!
Wonderful spring signs! I love the crocuses and the butterflies. Enjoy your weekend!
Wonderful photos !!
Oh how I want to go out for a long walk in the woods!
All of them are welcome signs after a harsh winter.
Beautiful firsts ...and the little frog is so cute :)
beautiful springtime signs!

closer and closer!! Lots of wonderful offerings from cottage country again - hope the weekend is shaping up nicely!! YAM xx
so many great sightings... spring is starting to emerge slowly... have a great day~
The frog's certainly an interesting looking little one!
Yes, spring is certainly coming along.
Lovely pics showing that Spring has arrived for you.
Oh, I'm SO jealous, Jenn. Flowers, frogs, butterflies. Sigh. Well, I can report having seen antelope twice. We had a couple of years when they didn't appear near our town, which borders Medicine Hat. Now they're back, and we're so pleased. We just do Lindy could see them, but must be content with remembering the first time she saw any. She was used to seeing deer on her walks, but antelope? Deer of a different colour? Sometimes, although I miss BC all the time, I'm happy to live where the deer and the antelope play.
Luv, K
I saw my first crocus this morning - had it been a butterfly, I think I might have fainted from joy!
you've got lots of spring things going.
I heard a pheobe in the Peterborough area a couple of weeks ago! Every spring I wonder if my girl (or one of her offspring) will be back nesting under the eaves of my front door porch.
HI Wonderful critter post.
Such a pretty and varied series of pictures this week. Love the frog.
