Drinking from a flower at the Butterfly Pavilion

Some of the butterflies got a bit frisky at times.

Visited the Stan Hywet butterfly house today where I found the most relaxed butterflies I've yet to see. I was able to take off the telephoto and shoot with the 60 macro; they didn't care if you stood right on top of them! One landed on my speedlight as I was changing memory cards. It's hard to use your camera to take a picture of itself.

 

It's a lovely facility, easily the most humidified butterfly house I've yet to visit, and I've been in three this summer. And it's been a HOT summer! When I walked out into the 90-degree heat and direct sun, I felt wonderfully cool. It was an odd sensation.

 

More posts to come in a day or so. Also some from the garden.
