Thanks. I'm glad you like it. These are new arrivals. I haven't seen a Buckeye before this year. Are they a sign?

It's certainly getting warmer Paul, shame about the Brazilian forests all on fire. Terrible situation there. Must have an effect on the planet.

Brazil & California is ablaze as well. I'm sure it has a huge effect.

I do hope that they manage to extinguish the fires Paul. Terrible loss of wildlife too.

Me too, but the fire is actually part of the life cycle. It's how the land renews itself. However, sometimes it's arson. I remember in 1994, it happened here. The Long Island Pine Barrens were ablaze and I was amazed at how quickly it spread. Thank Goodness Canada sent their troops to assist.
