My Little Buddy

Ohhh how beautiful this little butterfly is. It must have really thought of you as friendly to land on you like that. I love flutterbyes..that's what I call them. I've never called them butterflies, but flutterbyes. You are extremely fortunate to have gotten such a wonderful shot of this little friend. I can't wait to get a camera for myself to find things in nature to take pictures of.

What a beautiful little butterfly. I love butterflies but don't remember having one stick around like this one did for you. You must have been wearing the right colors to attract him for so long. I'll bet those little balls are collected pollen that got stuck to it's legs .

Wow. Black and white. I have never seen one like that.

We had butterflies and moths all over a few weeks ago. Then a cold snap came through and they went MIA. Now that the temps are warming up again I am sure they will come back out, I know my cat will enjoy that.

I have seen a few very pretty ones one black and a pretty blue,some yellow ones,i just think they are so pretty,i love watching all the little spring time creatures flying around.

wow I hardly ever see butterflies but I have never had one land on me, that is so cool. I think butterflies are God's greatest creations.

We had them at the old house all the time. At the new house, the landscaping really doesn't have anything that attracts butterflies yet, but it's definitely in the plans.

I have lots of butterflies in my yard. They are sure pretty. They do land on me occasionally. The one in your yard is beautiful.

I have not seen any Butterflys yet, I have had a few lady bugs come for a visit though. I like lady bugs too. When I lived in the Buffalo Mn, the Monarchs(sp) would migrate right through my back yard. So once year the yard would be full of lovely Monarch butterflys all over the place. I looked forward to it every year. That sure was a pretty little friend you made. Nice photo!

Ldy butterflies are just about my favorite thing in the world. Yes we have them coming out here in NC. Butterflies always remind me of our relationship with Christ we start out as something so ugly, he cocoons us in his love and when we are reborn, we come out as something beautiful. Didn't mean to start a sermon here, but that is the truth, and a beautiful thing to behold. Thank you for sharing your butterfly story with us, that is awesome, isn't it wonderful how some insects and animals just seem to sense the people they are safe around. Have a blessed day, and enjoy this beautiful Spring weather.

my grandpa had a way with butterflies and they would
come and land on his arm. he was very gentle and I
think they knew it . these were those big orange and gold and black butteflies that came in swarms. really gorgeous creatures too I believe they are called monarchs.I think that
they do have some sort of attraction for certain people
I have not seen many butterflies here which is odd with
all the plants and blooming shrubs we have.
