lots of butterflies in the Shirley Richardson Butterfly Garden… also many people…

the sun was shining so they were flitting about the whole space…

the blue Morpho butterfly is very sneaky and would not let me catch a single photo of it with the gorgeous blue when the wings are open…

next time I will take a video and then a still from that, lol…

the butterflies arrive as chrysalis from Costa Rica on a regular basis and are released into the space once they emerge…

so, each time you are in the Garden, there will likely be different varieties…

it is such fun to search for them in amongst the foliage…
