Butterflies everywhere
August 7, 2011
This afternoon we visited the Chattahoochee Nature Center. The purpose was to see the two bald eagles kept there because they have been injured and cannot be returned to the wild. They were perched on a shaded platform, probably because of the heat, and we couldn't get a good view of them. We'll try again in the fall.
As Nature's way to compensate us for this, there were butterflies everywhere. These are just two of them.
Tiger Swallowtail butterfly
Gulf Fritillary butterfly
And also a lot of other insects such as wasps and bumble bees.
Can you see the bumble bee on this passion flower?
