Camera Critter Saturday Monarch Caterpillars

These photos were obviously taken earlier this past summer.   There were dozens of monarch caterpillars on my milkweed this year.   We had our 1st snow last night,  just a dusting, originally the weatherman called for much more, he strikes out again :).   I am watching about a dozen cardinals at my feeder but it is just barely light so I cannot take a picture, they feed in groups in early morning and late evening.

Orchids

Last Saturday we went to a local greenhouse that has hundreds of poinsettias on display along with lights, while there I snapped a few photos of their orchids.
