The Queens!

 

There was no need for me to make another trip to the butterfly pavilion because there were plenty of butterflies flying around outside in the open space.  The garden has planted a few more of the butterfly bushes that they like so much and a group of Queen butterflies were taking full advantage.

The two above were sharing one of the blooms.

This one latched on to a small bloom.

Like I did while watching the quail mentioned yesterday, I also spent some time watching the butterflies enjoying all the pretty blooms on the butterfly bush.  These little miracles of nature are worth watching anytime the opportunity arises.
