A Butterfly Event


Last weekend was rainy, wet and fun.
After a quick 12 miler Saturday, I stopped at the Greenspot to find a little farmers market set up in the parking lot.
I chatted with a local honey supplier there, some friendly bee advocates who told me about the butterflies at the Discovery Gardens. I purchased a jar of wildflower raw honey with honeycomb. Yum!

Here are some photos of the butterflies at the Discovery Garden. It's a great place for toddlers, and many of them were there. I was easily transformed to carefree, younger, butterfly-watching, days. I totally got into the fun and even got a temporary monarch butterfly tattoo applied to my face. No pictures. :) It was fun.
The butterflies dance and fly to their own rhythm. They were so colorful, with flirty wings. So pretty and free to look at.
I couldn't get a photo of them fluttering through the air. The darn critters move too fast for action photos.
