Hooverdog Note:
We have all heard plenty of bad news & seen countless horrible images in the past few days. I would guess that like myself you could use a little
happy news, so today I would like to share with you a happy little event that happened in my very own yard.
Sunday afternoon I walked out of my back door to the sight of hundreds of monarch butterflies fluttering about and covering the trees in my back
yard. It was a truly wonderful sight to see. These beautiful creatures had apparently selected my yard as rest stop on their southern migration.
To me there is nothing more delicate or graceful than a butterfly, kind of like flying flower petals. Groups of them covered sections of trees in clumps
like orange leaves on a branch. The rest fluttered about from plant to plant around the yard. My visitors only stayed a couple of hours before
moving on but I certainly enjoyed the visit. I am hoping this means that my house has been added to the butterfly travel guide and that I can expect
more visits in the future.
