April 20 and 21: Butterfly World

On Friday we drove over to the East Coast of Florida to visit Butterfly World for a day trip. What a fun trip! We went with our friend Bob.

In addition to the butterflies, they also have a number of small birds that were fun to photograph. In fact that was Ron's favorite.

This hummingbird flashed a red throat in his courting display -- Ron caught this image after much, much work!


And this guy posed for so long, everyone who was at Butterfly World that day must have at least one photo of it (but probably not this nice).

Well after we got home and looked at our images, we decided we could do much better so we drove back again the next day! We drove by ourselves but we met Karen, Liz, Suzie, and Helen Jo there. It's so much fun to have friends to hang out with while we are all doing what we enjoy.


There were some nice plant specimens there, too.
