I've noticed there aren't as many butterflies this years as in years past.

Some times a whole swarm of butterflies will flutter around her.<br /><br />They have a butterfly exhibit every year at the Chaffee Zoo in Fresno, and I used it for a scene in an MS I'm working on.<br /><br />Janice~Janice Seagraveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02576031935823587485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15015304.post-45212323618562262612011-08-11T14:20:58.806-05:002011-08-11T14:20:58.806-05:00Tatiana: I can't say I'm a fan of insects,...<b>Tatiana:</b> I can't say I'm a fan of insects, either--especially large, ugly flying ones I almost step on in the bathroom in the middle of the night (yes, this happened recently). Butterflies are one big exception. How can anyone not like them? <br /><br /><b>Xakara:</b> Glad to hear you make an exception for butterflies. I'm not normally a fan of anything that flies directly at me either. Very easy to be still inside the Conservatory, though. There are benches everywhere, as well as little nooks where you can stand back and simply admire what you see. And, unlike say...bees...this is one insect I don't mind landing on me.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17700809709293636333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15015304.post-49944018402206345162011-08-11T13:31:37.386-05:002011-08-11T13:31:37.386-05:00Absolutely beautiful!

It takes a lot to be still and careful. <br /><br />It's great exposure therapy for my insect phobia since I'm not afraid of them, but I am afraid I'll have a moment where I forget and swat, so I only try it once or twice a year.<br /><br />With these images, I think I'll try again soon. *smile*<br /><br />T13<br /><br />~Xakara<br /><a rel="nofollow">13 Polys</a>Xakarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12643255392076283232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15015304.post-35816420423538016972011-08-11T13:09:18.340-05:002011-08-11T13:09:18.340-05:00I'm not a big fan of insects, but butterflies ...I'm not a big fan of insects, but butterflies are an exception.
