Mamaroneck, NY Note: With October 2017 on pace to become the warmest October on record in New York City and its metro area, the sunflowers and summer colors are fitting. At the same time, this is one of the better years for Monarch butterfly migration. I counted 1351 Monarch Butterflies over a 7 hour period. The late and heaviest migration here since 1978 is due to the unusually warm weather and the fact that Hurricanes Jose and Maria lingered off the East coast for weeks disrupting and delaying bird and butterfly migration for between one to four weeks. With Monarch Butterflies still being reported in Toronto, the migration could still last another one to two weeks extending into November. At the same time, with Verizon beginning to dismantle Flickr -- first the removal of stats, now the discontinuation of photo book and wall art options -- Borischa Krautmo wrote a great article, How free is a free site that illustrates why it is more important than ever that sites like Ipernity are run by the members who are interested in promoting our passion rather than commercialization or bottom line results.
