Butterflies in our Garden!!!!

Ok, so this is not in the Maine series of blog posts...

However, can you see why I got distracted????

This butterfly was flitting from marigold to marigold in my garden this noon as I was watering all of the plants (tomatoes, herbs, flowers, etc...).

I dashed into the house to get my camera, and when I returned, it was still over with the marigolds.

What an enchanting addition to my day. hmmm...

Maine, part 2

As, we set off on our first hike of the weekend, we spotted this adorable little fellow having a snack up in a tree by the Manor. We stopped to greet him and we off along our way to hike through the woods :-)
