A monarch butterfly nectaring on a late-season flower in the backyard garden. Nectar is essential for monarch butterflies migrating to Mexico, providing the sugar needed to fuel their flight muscles and sustain them on their ~3,000-mile journey.

Nice day for some gardening. It’s surprising to see this native bee foraging at this time of year—likely due to the unusually warm November. It is one of the smallest bees, even smaller than a single petal of a mustard or canola flower! #Bees #biodiversity #photoghraphy
