It's fun seeing how the names and looks line up and compare between one butterfly and the next.

When I was little, I was *terrified* of butterflies. The way they fluttered made me soooo nervous! LOL!

Now I just think they're beautiful. Great post!

Happy TT!

Love butterflies - numbers 10 and 12 are always faves at Olbrich's annual "Blooming Butterflies" exhibit.

I only knew the monarch. We don't seem to have many butterflies down here.

Very pretty. The only bugs I tolerate!

So pretty, pretty. I don't think I could ever learn to tell them apart. I get distracted by all the colors.

Gorgeous. There's a great Butterfly Conservatory in Niagara Falls. It's so cool seeing them all up close and personal like. Great list. Happy T13!
