Our butterfly population is very small, and getting smaller! Especially the monarch. It warms my heart that you have so many of them.<br />I think you should get a 'star' for bravery my friend. Snakes? No thanks!! But your photos are all worth it. I loved them.<br />Blessings,<br />CeilCeilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06293917798735764739noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869212964119628808.post-52437548944784888622015-08-26T03:59:49.271-07:002015-08-26T03:59:49.271-07:00Wow....each and every one....breathtaking!!!Wow....each and every one....breathtaking!!!Hootin Annihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08811326085498312568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869212964119628808.post-10059717810080144492015-08-25T15:29:57.179-07:002015-08-25T15:29:57.179-07:00My these are just beautiful.
