harmonic turquoise Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 A beautiful chestnut tiger butterfly resting on some thoroughwort flowers(Fujibakama). It's fascinating to think that this plant has been cherished in my homeland for centuries, yet it's considered invasive and troublesome in other parts of the world. Nature's intricacies never cease to amaze. Spoiler An entrance to the Tea Room The traditional Japanese umbrellas adorning a pathway in a Japanese garden 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daveb Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Cool pics! Yeah, species that fit in well with the ecosystems they evolved in are fine and even beautiful. Humans spreading them to other areas can cause problems, especially when the new species out-compete native ones and disrupt the balance of the ecosystem, and in some cases, can cause native species to go extinct. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

harmonic turquoise Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 I went to the Chrysanthemum festival in my neighborhood. The festival is held every year in November. There are many different types of chrysanthemums on display, including large and colorful blooms, as well as smaller, more delicate flowers. It's free and anyone can come in and watch. It was so beautiful that I took too many pictures. Spoiler 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
