Wordless Wednesday

These are some pictures that my mom took in her yard. She said there were as many as a dozen butterflies at one time in two different trees. I'd take butterflies over boxelder bugs any day*.








(Around where I live we've had boxelder bugs by the billions. I've hardly ever seen boxelder bugs since I've lived here, and this year it was like someone dropped a bomb. They were everywhere. It. Was. Gross.)

  1. That's really neat. I don't think I've ever seen so many all together like that (outside of a butterfly garden) before.

  2. Wow, those are gorgeous pictures. We visited a butterfly sanctuary a few years ago off the coast of Monterey, CA. It was breathtaking. Beautiful.
