Butterflies

I love watching butterflies! They flitter past my office window excited to see the array of blooming flowers to land on.  Yet to all my hopes and desires, I only see one or two at a time.  I would love to look up sometime and see dozens of butterflies landing on the flowers.

As if it knew that I was taking it's picture, the butterfly flittered to another group of flowers and spread it's wings wide open.  I was outside weeding and only had my cell phone with me.  Oh, how much I wanted to have my 35MM in my hand.  The butterfly was sitting there for so long and so beautifully.

After I took a picture of the evening clouds I realized that they looked a little bit like a butterfly wing.  I don't know, maybe I just have butterflies on the brain today?
