My daughter and I went to our local nature center today to see their special exhibit “Wings of Fancy” which features a room full of real butterflies you can walk around in. They do it every summer and it is just an amazing experience. If one is anywhere near you- you should go! The most amazing, beautiful butterflies live and up close! After walking around and taking a few pictures, I sat on a bench to rest while DD kept looking around at everything.
Of course I brought my knitting, so I figured I’d get a few rows in while I kept an eye on Kayleigh. I’m knitting the Amanda’s squatty Sidekick handbag from knittingdaily.com with this amazingly beautiful yarn I received in the last swap from IZA.
and look!
It rested there for at least a minute. and it wasn’t the least bit upset that I took its picture…
isn’t that cool?
and when I got home- my secret goodies arrived!! what a day!
That’s beautiful!! I always think its so special when a butterfly lands on you (I know, it sounds a little corny). I’m with Jan, it’d be a great avatar!
Very pretty, I love it! My DD just went on a field trip where she got to see butterflies. DD said her teacher wouldn’t go into the exhibit … because she’s afraid of butterflies. :??:shrug:
That’s even weirder than the camper I had who was afraid of marshmallows, or my friend who is deathly afraid of/creeped out by melted cheese (even though he still eats pizza.) I still haven’t weaseled that story out of him. :shrug:
