My butterfly guru, Brian, has been visiting the last few days. He didn't find much flying in all this cold, foggy weather, but showed me an Orange Giant-Skipper he raised from an AZ caterpillar. It's so beautiful, I can't resist posting it here.
My friend, Bonnie Wunderlich, who lives near Terlingua, sent me this photo of nearly a dozen young quail drinking at her water feature. You don't see a sight like that very often.

The weather has caused some interesting mushrooms to erupt from the ground but I know nothing about mushroom species.

The mushrooms may be one of the shaggy-manes, genus Coprinus. Do they melt into a puddle of black?
I haven't gone back and looked. I'll see if I can relocate them.
