Naaalala pa ba ninyo 'yong kuwento sa flying lizard na nakita ni Jose Rizal noong ipinatapon siya sa Dapitan? We are blessed that we plenty here in Kanlungan! On an daily average, tatlong beses kami nakakakita, lumilipat sa mga puno.

Ang napicturan ni tita Lyds ay Draco spilopterus, one of the 10 Draco species native to the Philippines. Molting o nagpapalit siya ng balat. Fying lizard ang tawag pero hindi talaga sila lumilipad tulad ng ibon. Sa halip, ginagamit nila ang kanilang mala-pakpak na balat upang dumausdos o mag-glide mula puno hanggang sa isa pang puno.

Ipinadala ni Rizal ang nahuling flying lizard sa Germany, at una itong pinangalanang Draco rizali. Eventually, nalaman na ang species na iyon ay may pangalan na noon pa bilang Draco guentheri, kaya iyon na ang kinikilalang pangalan ngayon.

Kung gusto natin ng maraming paru-paro sa paligid, hindi raw sapat ang flowering plants, ayon kay Tita Lydia, dahil ang mga bulaklak ay para lamang sa mga adult butterflies. Paano naman ang mga caterpillars pa lang?

That’s why it’s also important to plant host plants—plants where butterflies lay their eggs and which serve as food for their caterpillars.

She also stressed the importance of planting native species, as many of them are natural butterfly magnets and help support the entire butterfly life cycle.

It was short but meaningful! Salamat po tita Lyds! 🦋🦋🦋

Mula Los Baños, bumisita sila sa Kanlungan River Café (Liliw, Laguna) to celebrate their pastor's birthday, Pastor Paul. Horsilog (kabayo silog) at pako salad (fern) ang ilan sa mga inorder. Fresh palagi ang pako namin dahil sa paligid lang sila tumutubo. 💚🥗🙏🏻

“May clients!” ’Yan ang palagi naming sigaw kapag may nakikita kaming bumababa sa hagdan. Sa malayo pa lang napansin namin na may isa na huminto at matagal na pinicturan ang isang bulaklak. Sabi namin, mukhang mahilig sa halaman si ma'am. True enough—si tita Lyds pala!

Kanlungan becomes a natural orchestra, especially between 5 to 9 PM. 🌿🎶💚

Birds sing their final songs of the day, frogs begin their evening chorus, insects fill the air with gentle rhythms, while the river flows endlessly. As darkness falls, geckos and night birds take over the stage. No speakers. No playlists. Just nature.
