I can’t show it well with pictures, and the videos are too bouncy, but Seward has been overrun by painted lady butterflies the past week. It’s another adorable infestation. We have a lot on the playground, but the yards behind the center are FILLED with them.
We watch them after nap and have tried some feeding experiments, but the best was taking a walk on the sidewalk. It was like being in a Disney movie!

It is very princess movie-like. I play my own Disney songs in my head as I flit among them.
Kristi says
I should like to see you “flit”, my dear Deborah. 🙂
Deborah says
I flit and float.
Kristi says
I don’t think anyone could do it better. 😉
Kristi says
The butterflies are here, too! Maria takes her butterfly net and makes a mad swipe at them, hoping she might capture just one. Alas, her skills need some work.
Brad says
That sounds wonderful! I’ve only seen a few butterflies here, but they have been ones I recognize -- monarchs, and tiger swallow tails.
