In the time of the butterflies

This is what makes us extremely happy. The beetles are back!!

They are flying right in to the back door just to accomodate us in our lazy collecting. I can scoop them up off the patio!!

Can you see the little pale green, almost white butterfly? It looks like butterfles we have caught in Mexico, but I have never seen them here before.


And this is Steven although he is really out of the picture. You have to look closely but the tree is covered with butterflies. Steven caught ten with one swoop. Such fun!


Isn't this the way that summertime makes you feel? What could be better? They're everywhere. Let's get out there with our nets! Or we could just dance in the monsoon.

The third picture is gorgeous. I might have to steal it.

You little thief. What else would I expect?
