Update on Butterflies

Today I was outside and noticed the butterflies swarming my neighbor's butterfly bush. There is a picture of the bush below. I think the orange or rust butterfly is so pretty.











Thank you for looking at my pictures. There is a slideshow in the post below, that I did earlier today.

Hi Cathy, I have a butterfly bush too but for some odd reason many of my flowers and plants are still not in full bloom. Your butterflies are so pretty, I haven't ever seen the orange and rust one before, do you know what it is??

Cathy said...

Thanks Deby ~ I spent a lot of time taking pictures and chose the best ones.

No, Nancy, I don't know what it is. I just thought it was unusual and so pretty.

Hi Cathy..
I sure love butterflies, Our last ladies Tea we used the butterflies as our theme which was
" A New Beginning" so everytime I see a butterfly I am reminded that each day is a new beginning to try again.
The photos are sp pretty thanks for sharing them with us..

Cathy,you are really enjoying your camera and I am so happy for you...you are taking some beautiful pictures...

Cathy said...

Lorie, I like what you said about the new beginning. Those butterflies are very happy fluttering around, enjoying those flowers to the fullest. :o)

Thanks, Mimi, I have always thought I would like taking pretty pictures, but did not know how to use a camera. That's why I really love this digital camera.
