I spy a Painted Lady
Friends, again, don't worry! Our furry friends are doing great, and they are up to their usual antics. We'll see and hear more from them in the very near future. Believe me, they got a lot to tell us. But again, something that is pressing is noticing and appreciating all those things, the flora and fauna, that is quickly passing away as summer gives way to fall.
Yes, one might think that it will be endless summer thanks to the “Indian Summer” that we are experiencing at Notre Dame, but we should all know that everything is slowly fading away.
On waiting to lunch with Fr. Ralph, Fr. Terry Ehrman, C.S.C., botanist, theologian, and naturalist, was standing outside Steds next to what is lovingly, but mistakingly, referred to as the “butterfly bush” when he happened to come across this moth. On capturing this moth, Fr. Terry said, “All creation speaks to the glory of God.”
Indeed it does… so let’s us appreciate and enjoy it!
