I've never seen one before so this is my first exposure. Wish we had some tree frogs here (of any color) but I don't think they'd like our cold, dry climate? <br />I also enjoyed seeing the shrike. I'm not familiar with him either but what a striking bird. You always have great birds around your property tho.<br />Your Asters look beautiful still ~ good thing you haven't had a hard frost. I didn't realize that Monarchs are still migrating? I would think they need to hurry but maybe that's only because of the usual November weather where I live. You sure keep the bees happy ~ there aren't many weeks when there isn't something in bloom for them there! <br />Really wonderful post today!!!
