  2. Beautiful pictures!
    I love butterflies, they are so graceful. A couple of months ago, my daughter was able to watch them go through metamorphosis at her school and she loved it!

  3. I love the top picture especially! I saw a butterfly late last week and tried to get Li'l D's attention only to discover he'd fallen asleep. *shakes fist* Next time, I'll get to soak up his wonder . . . I mean, next time he'll get to see that butterfly! 0:)

  5. Thanks ladies! It's fun to watch the kids chase the butterflies. These pictures were taken at the zoo - that fabulous buffet was provided by the butterfly keepers. Jack got to watch larvae become butterflies this year also. Too fun!

  9. Thank-you ladies!

    Theresa, no these are not in my garden. These were at the zoo in a lovely greenhouse - steamy and tropical! I think I may have found a new hangout for the winter months!

    Shanda, they sure are quick little things, aren't they? It's near impossible to capture their beauty with still photography.

  12. My tattoo is a butterfly.
    I got it after my divorce. I loved the fact that something so beautiful can be born from something so ugly.
    These are beautiful pictures. :)

  13. Beautiful pics! I love butterfly pics -- once, when my hubby and I were first dating, we went to a butterfly exhibit and he took an AMAZING closeup of a butterfly on a flower. I've been trying to duplicate it for 10 years, with no luck! LOL

    I'm dropping in from the voiceBoks members to remember and following! Hope you get a chance to visit me too! I write a humorous blog about motherhood at Misadventures in Motherhood. It's usually good for a laugh, and maybe even a snort or two! Looking forward to reading more from you!
