Callicarpa dichotoma, the purple beautyberry or early amethyst, is a species of beautyberry. They are cultivated as garden shrubs. The flowers are pink to white. The berries which are small drupes are purple. The fruits grow closely together in large clusters. The fruit provides food for wild life.

grey Sunday here on Long Island, with the temps in the mid 60'sF, but so very windy... and I spotted this beautiful little girl fluttering around my garden... I quickly grabbed my camera and followed her around....
not the best images because of the wind... but I like to keep track of all my Monarch visitors!
Happy Sunday, my Flickr friends!!
One of two - Osprey I think - literally circling above me. I saw one of them the other day in a tree in my back yard. and they are hanging around here. Any luck, they are a breeding pair with a nest nearby. Good thing they can't handle a 70lb dog!
How amazing is it that we are wired to respond emotionally to beauty. I think it's a miraculous side effect of fear.
I have disabled the comments but thank everyone that took the time to visit...
Wishing you all a wonderful new week!
When people think of Long Island, New York they picture long, sandy beaches. But that is the south shore of our 23 mile wide and 120 miles long island. This is North Shore which has lots of woods and can be very hilly. This photo was taken from Centerport Beach looking south.
Taken with a 15-second exposure, because no, my reflexes aren't fast enough to catch lightning.
This one really is better in a larger size
Spectacular Sunday Sunset & Dramatic Dusk Display (New York Home Marina) - IMRAN™
Yes, the sunsets I’m blessed to experience at my blessed West-facing home on Tampa Bay, Florida are among the best in the world. But, despite the less direct “on-the-water” angles from my South-facing home of 27-years on the Great South Bay, there can be many spectacular ones to see in New York too.
Tonight’s is an example. I captured from the boardwalk while walking Kennedy & K2, after walking them on the beach here.
I recall my late beloved father and I taking in these scenes during his 2-months stay with me at this time of year in 1996. My mother never got to visit this home.
She and I would often see Manhattan sunsets after a walk to the Hudson River banks from my off-campus Columbia Univerity apartment in the summer of 1989. My Dad was in the USA too but away attending some higher education civil engineering courses in Salt Lake City, Utah then.
