Found two of them together in my rhododendrons this morning. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eacles_imperialis There’s a very interesting photo in the Wikipedia description that shows how they’ve evolved to look like dead leaves. In fact, I pulled them off of the rhododendron because I thought they were dead leaves:(

I look forward to a good corn on the cob all year long. So glad corn is finally in season.

Since I was a kid I’ve always called them mitten leaves. It was only a few years ago that I learned that they are the leaves of the mulberry tree. I consider myself extremely lucky to have a mulberry tree in my backyard.

Went back to check on the luxury caps this morning. They’re still looking beautiful:) This one reminds me of a starfish.
