The Butterfly Show

This summer had it's bright spots even with the terrible heat and drought. We had an abundance of butterflies. I did studies when I could which mostly consisted of taking my camera with me when I walked every day and capturing what I could of the variety and numbers of them. I hope to have a butterfly garden this next summer. I planted it last week so it really could happen! I planted wildflowers native to Missouri, and they will be mixed, at least at first, with other annuals and perrenials that the butterflies, hummers and birds will like. Below is a slide show of some of my summer's passtime. This is in flash so you will need to have adobe flash to play it. It won't show on an ipad unless you have a work around for that. Sorry.
