Beautiful

Tomato Hornworm.


Pic 3 days old.


This fella moved when I was reaching for a tomato. Surprised me. Made me jump.


Most likely a pupa by now.

from the web

First time I've enjoyed this view in 22 months. (I'll try to get on down to the mouth in the next couple of weeks and get a picture so I can do a before and after. It's only 100 yards. Shouldn't take but an hour or two)

I chased this guy around for over an hour when I was mowing and trimming last week. Felt sorry that his bread and butter was my weeds.



The same with these two. Several times I had to wait for them to fly so I could mow.

Thank you for sharing.



6. Picnic by the Metal Flower / Floralis Genérica
Another tourist spot that locals flock to see is a robot sculpture. This Metal Flower opens and closes with the sun. Often it is broken, but it doesn’t stop locals from going and hanging out in the grass with some food and drink.






@Milovan1 , Many of your postings here are on target as the topic states, Beautiful.

Posting a bit of background information, if it can be found, is beneficial when available and builds confidence with your audience.







1. Artisan Markets
One of the best things to do in Buenos Aires are all the artists’ markets! Every Sunday in a variety of places around the city are street markets dedicated to artists.

You can find some lovely and creative items plus people watch and enjoy the sun as you walk around. Some of the markets are in some classic traditional parts of the city such as Recoleta and San Telmo.

If you are interested in leather products, you can find some good quality leather products for a cheaper price than what you would get in North America or Europe. Of course there are artists who make jewelry or household items.






When traveling , going to the local markets during busy shopping hours is always a good way to find entertainment.

They risk their lives to climb these dams in order to lick the vital nutrients (like sodium and minerals) that the dam walls offer. Apparently, it's the only way for them to get these nutrients, so they'd die if they didn't, anyway. What a life...

Maybe they licked the local rocks/stones before the dams were built.
They like to climb so now the dams are their go to spot?

Not sure. It's the water seeping through the walls that deposit these minerals, so I assume there were other spots at which to lick such rocks before the dam was built...
