     The butterfly season is well and truly over.  Our last butterfly sighting was on October 31 – we didn’t quite make it into November.   However, Rosemary Jorna sends photos of two arachnoids from near Kemp Lake, November 24.   We can identify the mite to Family level.   Thanks to Thomas Barbin for identifying the spider.
