My niece...

I've already put these on FB so most of you who check here probably have already seen them but nonetheless....

















Here the kids were really just invading the couch/picture area and were begging to hold their little cousin. They look so sweet and angelic...wait...are those my kids?

Its butterfly season....

At the local butterfly exhibit anyway. I can only WISH it were true outside here. We are actually slated to get sn-sn-snow again. I just didn't want to say it. Yuck!

I'm sure I'll have more to post as I keep going through my pics and take a handful more trips back there. They get about 700- 1,000 new butterflies each week through the duration of the exhibit. All in all they guess about 6,000!! Can you imagine!! Each butterfly only lives about 2 weeks. SO anyway....I'm hoping to make it back when they have more Blue Morpho's which are extremely hard to photograph when open and flying and Tree Nymphs which I've taken several pics of in past years, but hoping for more.

Not positive about this one...a Scarlet Mormon maybe?:

Two Leopard Lacewings:

A postman of some sort (I believe):



More Postmans (there are many diff. varieties):



And two of my favorite little bugs:

Fall pics....just in time for winter....

I took these exactly a month ago, actually when I took the pic from the last post but I just never get around to posting these ones. I was also trying to take pics of my nephews for my sis, so I didn't get as many of my kids as I'd hoped. They were all a little too rambunctious that day.
