Madeleine Monday - Guest Photographer

Mrs. C and daughter Emily took Madeleine to the butterfly house and carousel in a suburban park yesterday. (I had to go to work.) Emily is a pretty good shooter herself. The tyke had a good time but she's usually up for anything..          

Blue Morpho

There is a large butterfly house, something like a three-story greenhouse, in a park in the nether suburbs. I had never been there. We decided to take Madeleine for a visit on Sunday.

I've visited butterfly enclosures before in the US and particularly in Costa Rica but never before have I seen such a density of the winged bugs. It was a warm, sunny day and they were very active. This blue morpho took a break on the reinforced glass wall.
