Default Re: The all new, slap bang up to date 2017 photo a day

This is a Crayfish Mound.
Found in the marsh next to our pond.
It looks like a chimney and is about a foot tall or more.
There were several small blue butterflies flying about but they would fly away whenever I got close all though I did manage to get one in this pic


Is the first year we have seen them as they are (were?) usually found
in the swamps and marshes in the eastern part of the state some 150 miles from here, where they have a much warmer climate.
However with the increasingly milder and wetter weather we are having here things are changing.

I find it almost unfathomable that any person could 'not believe in' climate change.
Can they not see the world changing in front of their eyes?
Have they no memory of how the weather was when they younger??
