Many of the flowers are gone this late in the season, but the rosemary bushes we planted five years ago along the RV Drive still have their tiny blue flowers. This butterfly was kind enough to pose while this photo was taken a couple of days ago. Click on the image to enlarge.
The Painted Lady Butterfly. Every spring, my wife (a 1st grade teacher) gets a kit complete with little containers, food, and the eggs of this butterfly. The class raises the eggs through the larval, pupal, and adult stages, then turn them loose.The kids really love that!
I think that is great. Nothing affects a kid more then seeing LIFE from beginning stages.
