I haven’t seen any of these visit for the past few years, so it is always a pleasure when they do.

I have seen some faded and bedraggled ones here, but it is nice to see one so fresh looking 🙂

I need to look at all the butterflies we have in our uncut field. Keeping it wild until mating season over.

That’s good Judi. The more butterflies there are the more the merrier!

We had tons of Painted Ladies two years ago, with very few last year.
I’ve seen a handful so far this summer. They are so special!

Don’t see too many Painted Ladies in my garden. Last year the hot weather brought them, but none so far.
