I tend to notice them only when the "butterfly plant" (can't remember its real name) comes into flower, which is sometime in September, so it's still a bit early. Budlia? A purple flowered bush that resembles lilac. Already well in flower. Or do you mean the large headed pink flower with many florets that seems to weep, it is so rich in nectar? Loads of he smallish brown moth that infests this part all year this year. We had a warm winter and a long spring with a cold snap that may have hurt them in late March and April, IIRC. -- Posted via Mailgate.ORG Server - http://www.Mailgate.ORG |

We don't know how many have been killed in China and similarly badly run countries at any time for sure. I wonder why the weather was so nice in my area for the last spell, however it wasn't all roses for many: One body found in mine floods 10 Aug 2005 Freak snowfall hits Australia 10 Aug 2005 Heat brings jellyfish to Spain 10 Aug 2005 Flood hampers Indian rescue 10 Aug 2005 Drought sees rise in nut prices 10 Aug 2005 Iranian floods kill ten 10 Aug 2005 Heat threatens Toronto's power 09 Aug 2005 Bulgarian flood death toll rising 09 Aug 2005 Many dead in Nigerian flash floods 09 Aug 2005 Typhoon Matsa heads to Beijing 09 Aug 2005 Wildlife on move to cooler climes 09 Aug 2005 European drought hits maize crop 09 Aug 2005 Cloudy skies delay shuttle return 08 Aug 2005 Chinese landslide kills five 08 Aug 2005 Drought-like conditions grip Nepal 08 Aug 2005 Indian landslide kills eight 08 Aug 2005 Many killed in Chinese mine floods 08 Aug 2005 Six dead in Bulgarian floods 08 Aug 2005 Heat wave tests Greek energy 07 Aug 2005 Freak thunderstorm brings hail 07 Aug 2005 Monsoon rains move south 06 Aug 2005 Portugal in grip of wildfires 05 Aug 2005 Dozens of Bangladeshis missing 05 Aug 2005 Snow causes traffic chaos in Oz 05 Aug 2005 Gold trade suffers from monsoon 04 Aug 2005 One dead in St Maarten flash flood 04 Aug 2005 Five Chinese missing in flood 04 Aug 2005 Drought takes its toll on US crops 04 Aug 2005 Another Scout gets hit by lightning 04 Aug 2005 |
