The sun is shining once more after Ida's visit. I saw one large orange 
butterfly pass through the yard, but it didn't linger.? The Rose of 
Sharon blooms did attract some visitors.? This Skipper made itself at

Real Bumble Bees are seldom seen in recent years in my yard. Here, one 
is seen exiting a Rose of Sharon Bloom, his abdomen covered with hairy 
yellow rings:
