“Funnel clouds sighted in western Mass.” —-Boston.com
This picture was taken in Sunderland half a mile from where I live, in the backyard of a farmstand that sells me zucchini and ice cream.
Also:
For two days straight now, on the old Dingle road, we find dead butterflies, Monarchs, their wings stiff and bright, the soft black butter of their bodies wriggling with ants. Angels, tigers. The natural industry of dying.

Woo western Mass!
FUNNEL CLOUD!! AWESOME!!
Okay, not awesome for those who endure any damage, but just plain awesome to see. 🙂
I think everybody’s safe–according to the article, they aren’t even sure if it touched down. But I want to go hiking up there in the woods where it showed up and see if I can find evidence.
I agree it is pretty awesome.
Wow, amazing that you got that shot! I heard one was sighted a little south of here, and also in New Salem heading for Shutesbury.
Also, I also intend to take you up on your meme challenge–just need some time to sit down and write!
🙂 Sadly this is not my photo, though I am indeed insanely jealous…it was taken by the lady who owns the farmstand. Click the image for the article.
I look forward to reading your summer small pleasures!
OK, I posted it here:

Hope you like it.
Also, I have recently gotten a digital camera, and if you scroll back a few entries, you might enjoy a few of the bugs and things. 🙂
