Rewilding My Lot

Converting a new developer lot into a nature ecosystem — my journey


Common Buckeye

This pretty visitor appeared at my feet when I stepped out of the back door today. It’s a Common Buckeye butterfly.

According to the Wikipedia description of the Common Buckeye, its habitat is open areas with low vegetation and some bare ground. Given the ravages of our current drought here and the fact that I am surrounded by building sites, that’s a pretty fair description of our area right now.

About Me

Nature Lover.
Inquisitive Observer.

I invite you to join me on my journey to convert my sterile (from a nature point of view) new house lot to a healthy and diverse ecosystem, as I make discoveries, mistakes, and hopefully progress. I am not an expert or professional. The project started in February 2023 and the location is Seguin, Texas, USA.
