I had four of these fantastic creatures in my backyard this afternoon! And a lot of bees, smile, I think it's the clover. A quick search and I had a name~ the zebra butterfly!
These are the friendliest butterflies I have ever seen. We have monarchs and yellow swallowtails around the house but these pretties have just recently been around -and today they were in our backyard letting me photograph them! I was probably a foot away from them and they let me take all the pictures that I wanted to! They were so happy feeding on the clover... what a marvelous experience to have them all flying around me. When I went back in the house to download the camera and post this they were still out there!
And then there were the bees, other than the one in my hair they were busy with the clover too. -I didn't count them, smile.
Just to report: getting stung 3 times within 20 seconds is NOT fun. At all.
In the strangest way possible, I am very glad that I was the one who got stung multiple times, as much as I'm still in some pain, and that only one of my kids of the 12 that were laying there with us, got stung at all. And thankfully, it wasn't the boy who if he gets stung, needs an epi-pen because otherwise he'll swell up like a balloon and stop breathing and some other fun stuff I DON'T want to think about.
but yeah...Darren is NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVER being the first Sardine EVER again.
Just in case the bees don't make it maybe we should all stock up on Honey 
Today was shopping day for me. I got some potting soil because I am going to have to move some of the petunias I planted in pots this year. Every single seed seems to have come up and the pots are way too crowded. So I am going to move some out in the yard around the fence or maybe in some bare spots around trees. And I will put more soil in the pots..and still have plenty in there to make my porch look nice.
I also got a new cheap wristwatch. I got a cheap one because it's what I wear when I am doing gardening or housework and it gets wet and banged around so I don't want a really good one for that.
Other than that it was just your normal groceries. I stocked up on flour and sugar. And I bought too many sweets :( Why must they put the pastry section right next to the fruits???? It's just mean!!
