When Autumn Sets In

Hi (Furry)furriends💗

It’s getting cold in our Country…

the mornings are the worst

…10°C=50F…

and the evenings too…

but we don’t know about that

because we’re not allowed to get out

in the dark…

even if it’s only 7 o’clock p.m.🍼🙄

but it also means

no more early mornings…

sitting outside with Granny…

and watching the Butterflies…

and no more reading for Granny too…

…not that she had time for that…

as she had to stand up

a thousends few of times

to protect the White Wings Butterflies…

and the other ones…

that hanging out in the gazebo…

drinking the nectar of the grapes…

until effurrything has been sucked out…

then they’re so drunk

that you only have to stand still…

and wait…

until they land in your paws…

but then Granny comes

and frees the Butterflies

out of our claws…

she only has to say

‘Better you don’t do that…’

and we let go…

not always though…

sometimes we don’t hear her…🙉

that’s where the snack comes in…

…not that we had a lot of them…🙈

and we have to admit

these snacks are delicious…

sometimes it even gives you wings…

from the vino…🍇😹

but as Granny is around us

almost 24/7

she could save a lot of ‘her special creatures’…

one of her special stories is about Atalanta…

she wanted to be saved

and put herself in the hands of Granny…

then Granny looked for a save place…

to recover… 

and when she was ready

she flew back in the gazebo

to show that she’s doing fine…

…again…

only her wings

were a little affected

but she wasn’t in pain

and sucked a lot of grapes after this

…err…adventure…🙈

and Granny saved another one

when I was dragging this one into the house…

This is Atalanta II calling

she was saved by Granny

and put in the flowers of our fountain…

after a while

she came flying down

and sat down on the chair…

and called for Granny’s attention…

and when Granny reached out to her

with her hand

she settled down on her finger…

and Granny walked her through the whole garden

…like she does with us…

talking to her

and put her down on a leaf in the gazebo…

but she flew off immediately

and sat down on the neighbours’ hedge…

so that Granny still could see her…💗

this little one under the lavender to the left…

also flew on

after a clap clap🐾

And I found another White Wings

the other day…

so I called for Granny…

…I always do that when I want her to come…

because I saw that there was something

very wrong…

Granny didn’t saw it in the first place…

but then she saw what a spider had done with

White Wings…

and she took action immediately…

because White Wings was still alive…

but when she saw The Light…

she knew it was a calling

to come Home…

so she carried her to Angel’s Place

where the Angels would taken care of a new Angel…

and for this special one too… 

who nestled herself in the 

Butterfly Bush…

that Granny buried with her

in Angel’s Place…💞

See Granny…

they can’t always blame us for hurting them…

there are a lot of other species

who eats them…

even the birdies do…

and besides…

we don’t want to hurt them

we’re just playing

and accidentally…

well…you know….

Let’s give our 

T H A N K F U L ‘ s

now

for the signs

Granny gets right after saving

them…

even the grapes give her signs…

which she’s very

T H A N K F U L

for

and for this looks-a-like-papurr Rose…

…it even feels like papurr…

and the getting higher and higher

Clematis…

That looks like a

Stairway to heaven Granny…

…talking about that…

We have to do a poem for our furriends

Angel Sammy and his brother Teddy

on this picture…

“If you ever want to see

how the world looks

above me

you find yourself some stairs

to walk straight up in the air

effurry step you take

feels like a kind of outbreak

from the world below

with their ruling puppet show

it’s better you don’t stop

but keep on walking 

to the top

and once you’re there

don’t be scared

because from here you can see 

how the world looks

when you’re higher than me.”

…wait…

let me do some artwork

and include a puzzle

for our fans

…first…

before I go to my next project…🐭

📸📚🦋Have a Happy Tuesday my furriends🦋📚📸

🙏Stay Safe Healthy and Yourselfie🙏

    Your granny is very caring to look after the butterflies, and you are very good to leave them when she tells you to. Your flowers are still so beautiful.

    It’s a shame you can’t go out on early morning butterfly hunts at the moment 🙂

    It’s always so beautiful in your garden, Peachy and Stippie. We love all of those visitors, and we know you are just playing with them, but accidents happen. Good thing Granny is there to keep things under control, right? XO

    You are such cuties. Please try not to hurt the butterflies . I am glad Granny rescues them. And whatever you do, don’t eat them as they can be poisonous to you like the monarchs. Nice poem and beautiful art. Thank you for the puzzle. XO

    The butterflies are so pretty. It will be sad when they fly to warmer climates.

    We’re actually looking forward to the cooler temps. It was just 2ºC in the early mornings over the weekend in the mountains where we went for a wedding and to catch the changing leaves. And with it being darker in the mornings too, it means we can sleep in a little. 😻

    There sure are a lot of pretty butterflies in your beautiful garden, Peachy and Stippie. No wonder that you like to play with them!
    Sorry about those who got different wings…
    That is a amazing poem!! We love it!

    So many butterfly encounters – WOW! In case you kids ever think you might want to eat one, don’t. I tried it and they are NOT delicious. Plus Granny is so kind and loving, she would not be OK with that behavior.

    Love and licks,

    We are in awe of the butterflies, papillons, in your amazing garden. How lovely to have them decorate your plants and trees, even if they are drunk! Just beautiful.
    We have never seen papillons like that.

    So beautiful and yes it’s getting cold in the mornings. You two are living large and I’m sure Granny makes sure you’re as happy as kitties can be.

    Thank you for joining the Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.

    Have a fabulous Happy Tuesday. Double Pawkisses to you both and a big hug to Granny. ♥

    Boys, you darlings, my momma loves you. You are so loved by your Granny who doesn’t let you out into the dark. That is good as you already know. You want to be safe and warm and snuggled up by your family. Your Granny is truly the butterfly whisperer, just as Teddy said in a comment above me. Everyone is safe in the garden with your Granny out there. XO

    Autumn looks rather good in your neighbourhood boys! There are so many dangers for butterflies in any garden. Yours is lucky as you have Granny keeping an eye on things. Keep safe and keep the butterflies as safe as you can 😉

    Oh boys so very many beautiful photos of the garden and the “visitors” who come to the sanctuary for a little snack or to visit your Granny who is the “butterfly whisperer” if they need help. She has a special touch with helping them and they know it. Meanwhile, there’s never a dull moment for you boys in the garden – so much to watch and enjoy. We also think the poem you and Granny did for Poetic Thursday was absolutely PERFECT! We’re so happy you join us for poem fun every week…….we send you BIG HUGS from across the BIG POND.

    Love, Teddy and Mom Pam
