Here's S.D.'s take on butterflies ... And one I took a couple of years ago I was surprised it let me that close. Yours is pretty incredible, I wish I was able to see one live
I'm a big fan of animated films (like the Disney classics) w/ cute little non-humans - don't know why? We have a lot of stuff creatures in our house of all different types - below just a corner of our den w/ my stuffed bunnies. Another example before my retirement, I was a radiology professor and had a 2-year cycle of lectures (all on PowerPoint) on the GI tract w/ a few exceptions including Hysterosalpingography (won't explain unless asked ) - but one of my slides included uterine anomalies, one of which is named after the Virginia opossum - found a cute image from the National Opossum Society to add to the slide (both slide & original images below) - my residents always chuckled at that that one - just so cute! Dave .
I was surprised too about mine, although I tried to get nearer as quiet as possible. They are a rare sight here. I can't remember when I saw a European peacock in my region last time. I like your butterfly. It's beautiful.
Well below a new addition to the family! A 2014 Camry LE Silver Metallic - will be ready in a day or two - we traded in Susan's 11 y/o Camry and have not bought a new car in 9 years! We're already planning a bunch of short driving trips for the summer and early fall, so this will be our NEW road yacht - and BOY the audio system has REALLY been updated in a decade (as expected) - I'll be able to just connect my iPod (90+ hrs of music) via Bluetooth to the car's system (may drive Susan NUTS! ) - Dave .
That is very beautiful Johanna! You live in such a beautiful area, and more so when the sun sets! How exciting to be getting a new car Dave! Just love the smell of them when they're new! As long as Susan has control of that iPod, I think you will be fine!
Yippee! It was about time. If Dave's music drives me nuts I will start whining about rest stops every 15 minutes. I get the old 2005 car because of my propensity for attracting dents and scratches.
