I find that butterflies are a little easier (and prettier) to comprehend... Here are some photos I've taken...

Sometimes in nature, Tender Heart and I witness the unusual. Such a case of a massive gathering of Red Admirals (see picture below taken near Doty WI on 7 1 2012) by her mother's old place in the Nicolet National Forest. There were thousands of them! They were on trees and roads. It was kind of neat (and at the same time annoying) having a half of a dozen butterflies flutter around your head...
Each time we go out in nature, Tender Heart and I make a new discovery.... Weather it's butterflies, mammals, wildflowers and even birds, it's a whole new world for us. Till next time!

Great pictures, drew. There's such a variety of them. The only one I recognized was the Monarch.
I love butterflies. Thanks Drew
butterflies are much prettier than bugs :D
I love butterflies also but it is very hard to get a picture of them. The reason they are a lot harder is they land on something then take off right away. By the time you have the camera focused in on them they are gone.
The Red Admiral was all over the road up by my moms land. It was crazy because I had to be careful when I was driving up there. They were sunning themselves on the road.
Beautiful pictures, but... bugs is bugs
