Wings of Fancy

This morning we went to the "Wings of Fancy" butterfly exhibit at Brookside Gardens. There were literally hundreds of butterflies fluttering around the large indoor conservatory. Our first stop was at a table where you could study expired butterflies. Evelyn visited this display twice to inspect the butterfly wings.
Both Evelyn and Julia were a little on edge about the butterflies flying all around and the possibility of one landing on them. Little Julia never could completely relax. Shhhh . . . don't tell the girls that there is a black butterfly on the plant behind them . . .

At the end of our time at the exhibit, Julia settled down enough to point out some still butterflies on flowers. She looks like quite the tour guide in this picture -
