Backyard Autumn Nature

The Monarch butterflies are still here. It is getting colder every night, and is a very long way to migrate to Mexico to hibernate for the winter. The slide show contains 12 images.

Indoor Autumn Nature in New Jersey: Mutant House Pet

Macro image of a Scutigera coleoptrata (House Centipede) found wandering in my house. This one must have been breathing radon in the basement 😉 . Too bad it didn’t come out for Halloween.
