The Painted Lady butterfly


I still marvel that I can get out in nature and see something I've never seen before. I took a sandwich to Shangri-La campground to have a little picnic one day and see what the day would hold.


Painted Lady Butterfly


Isn't the underside of this butterfly amazing?


After I ate I went on a little hike. And I turned down a trail that I had never been on before. There was a pile of limbs and wildflowers had grown up around them. It wasn't very easy to get photos.


But the wildflowers were attracting lots of butterflies and moths. 


Gulf Fritillary


And I had never seen the Painted Lady butterfly before so that was something to celebrate!


Lots of little Warblers in the forest now.


And isn't this little Sparrow precious?


I love the small birds we see here in Florida.


A mosaic to share.


We still have roses blooming so I made myself a pretty arrangement.


Enjoy your week and spend time in nature whenever you can.
