Butterflys
Can't believe it, I've never seen so many butterflys in one spot. Out in the horse field I have a large patch of asters. The butterflys were all over them, mostly monachs but some viceroys and those yellow butterflys, I forget what kind they are.

Re: Butterflys
Beautiful!
I noticed an unusual amount of butterflies flitting around some of the annuals I planted in a south facing foundation bed yesterday too. I've never seen that many in one place in our yard before.

Diligently follow the path of two swords as one. Percieve that which the eye cannot see. Seek the truth in all things. Do not engage in useless activity.

Me too! We've been invaded by Tortoiseshells on the Agastache. It's wonderful :)

Re: Butterflys
None here today, so I think they were just passing through on their migration route.

Beautiful!! 
Sadly we have not hardly seen any Monarch's here again this year and we have a field of Milk Weed, Asters, Goldenrod, Crown Vetch and False Sunflowers??
Glad others are seeing them though
