Hope they fix the "You have no public photos" problem VERY soon! Just turned on my computer maybe 15 minutes ago, around 10:30 am, to find I couldn't see my photostream and that, according to the Help Forum, many other people are experiencing this. A little later: looks like this issue has been fixed. Oops, no it hasn't, but I somehow managed to get in by clicking on the Flickr page and clicking on one of my photos posted just now. This is a Leopard Lacewing, I believe, photographed in the ENMAX Conservatory at the Calgary Zoo. Taken way back on 26 April 2010. Grabbed this photo very late last night from a folder of photos to maybe post on Flickr. In fact, I grabbed all three of today's photos from there, as I was just too tired to search any further. "The Leopard Lacewing (Cethosia cyane) is a species of heliconiine butterfly found from India to southern China (southern Yunnan), and Indochina. Its range has expanded in the last few decades, and its arrival in the southern part of the Malay Peninsula, including Singapore, is relatively recent." From Wikipedia. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cethosia_cyane I was out all day yesterday (7 November 2015) with my daughter, who had asked if I wanted to go to several Christmas Fairs south of Calgary, including Millarville and Okotoks, and then was out in the evening at the annual 'Banquet' for the nature group I belong to. So, the whole day was most enjoyable. I think half of Calgary as well as everyone from the surrounding areas were there at the same Christmas markets. Everywhere was absolutely packed! Normally, I don't go to any Christmas fairs any more, but it does make a lovely day out with my daughter. Each Christmas, I treat myself to one new thing, and this year was no exception : ) Also bought a Bison and roast vegetable pie from the Canadian Rocky Mountain Ranch exhibit and will have this for supper today. This is the first time I have tried anything from there, but I know it will be good. Looks like we have snow in the forecast for Monday, Wednesday and Saturday of this coming week. Today, however, is a beautiful sunny day, so I guess I had better not waste it.

Can't believe how far back I've been digging into my archives, especially to find an occasional colourful image! This photo of a Leopard Lacewing was taken on 10 May 2010, in the ENMAX Conservatory at the Calgary Zoo. I was going to crop it to a square, but then decided not to waste any of the colourful bokeh. I would imagine that the Zoo will be displaying their annual butterflies any time soon. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cethosia_cyane

Came across a butterfly photo the other day that I hadn't uploaded, when I was searching for something else. This is a Leopard Lacewing, a female I think, in the Conservatory at the Calgary Zoo.. Taken way back in early May. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cethosia_cyane
