A plethora of beautiful butterflies!

 We are currently experiencing an abundance of these colorful swallow-tailed butterflies on the property. Depending on the angle from which they are viewed, the iridescent scales on their wings shift colors from electric blue to electric green and even turquoise and yellow tones. Beautiful!

"Few events will shape the world to come more than the result of the upcoming U.S. presidential election," Time editor-in-chief and CEO Edward Felsenthal wrote in a note to readers.

Yellow-Crowned Night Heron

I spotted this juvenile Yellow-Crowned Night Heron (Nyctanassa violacea) doing day duty in the Wetlands Reserve area of the property. With acres of undisturbed nature to explore, Paya Bay is a great place for birdwatching.
