Butterflies!

A few years ago we planted a butterfly bush.  It has always attracted a lot of  butterflies but this year we have seen more butterflies than ever.  He are just a few pictures that my 9-year-old daughter took.

    Beautiful! Great photo's too, very close-up. I wouldn't know the name of the fourth butterfly.It looks like a swallowtail that lost its colour. We saw a Swallowtail butterfly in Italy this summer. It is here:

    Butterflies always inspire to take a photo or make a drawing, uh?

    Paula, the 4th one is a black swallowtail. Very pretty up close.

    Your blog has the best drawings I have seen and believe me, I have seen a few. Such skill!
