Monday, Bug was off school and I worked in the morning. Once I finished up work, we picked up Mam and headed to the butterfly show. This year the butterflies are from Costa Rica- so close to Guatemala. I am missing Guatemala.
there were 2 waterfalls and blue morpho butterflies flying all over the area.
There were some gorgeous Monarch butterflies feasting on nectar.
Then I found this incredible butterfly. A malachite. it hung out with me for 10-15 minutes, too cool.
this is the malachite with open wings
Mam was having a hard time walking. She sat while we walked around looking for butterflies. The blue morphos are never still, but one landed on Mam.
Finally, after years, I get a picture of a still blue morpho with open wings. We learned that we need to wear khaki pants and a light blue shirt and the butterflies will come land on us. Mam had on khaki pants
