Butterflies & So Much More...
This was our second time participating in the North American Butterfly Association (NABA) Butterfly Count.
We spotted so many different species. It was a fabulous hunt.
Our group was led by T. Will Richardson, Ph.D., the Co-Founder & Executive Director of Tahoe Institute for Natural Science. We always learn so much when we're with Will. WOW.
At one point we saw pairs of butterflies engaged in some sort of dance. Will stated, "Butterflies are nothing if not passionate!" I never thought of that before but I delighted in that quote.
The bees were out in full force and great diversity, too.
I write of simple pleasures quite often. Today was a joyful one. Spending the morning in Nature with like-minded people... it really doesn't get much better than this.
“Some people are settling down,
some people are settling
and some people refuse to settle
for anything less than butterflies.”
