Did you know that today, 29 September 2015, is International Coffee Day?

This photo was taken at the Calgary Zoo on 21 September 2015. The ENMAX Conservatory butterfly house display is coming to an end. The beautiful tropical plants are beginning to fade and the number of butterfly species seems to be down. Each time I go to the Zoo, I always hope that at least one of these beautiful Water Lilies will be in bloom.

Thank you to the Zoo staff who made this room such a delight to visit since spring. Really wish I had been able to get to the Zoo more than just three very recent times this year! Lots of people there on 21 September, now that ILLUMINASIA, Lantern & Garden Festival has begun.
