Butterfly
Dave and I flew to Florida today. We're hanging out with my family, and on a walk tonight around the neighborhood we found this spectacular butterfly. Turns out it's an Eastern Tiger Swallowtail. We also saw a horned owl, cardinals, bluebirds and deer. It's nice to be back in my home state! (No fireflies, though.)
How are the beaches in your part of the state? Nature is the one thing I miss from Florida. Some of the (bigoted) people -- not so much. Hope you guys have a great visit!

ReplyDeleteI kept trying to get a picture of a butterfly yesterday - but it wouldn't SETTLE anywhere. They sure are flitty creatures! This picture is great!
ReplyDeleteMy memories of Florida involve humidity. Yuk. But a spectacularly beautiful place none-the-less. Have a terrific visit.
