Butterfly Delight!

This was a fun shot.  This butterfly just would not leave this lady's leg.  My guess is she had on a very appealing lotion.

This fellow looked a little worse for wear.

 Isn't this a beauty.  By the way if you are wondering where I am....well I am at the University of Florida Butterfly Home in Gainesville, Florida.  It is basically a three story screened in area where you can sit among these beautiful butterflies.  There are lush gardens too.

    Carole, they are beautiful creatures. I had the opportunity to visit the Butterfly Garden in Victoria, B.C. and absolutely loved seeing all the beautiful inhabitants.

    Gorgeous photos Carole! I love Butterfly exhibits! I haven't been to one with my SLR yet though. Too far away. Hope to one day soon!
