Tropical butterfly farm revisited

Post by Beatsy »

I enjoyed my last visit so much, I went back again yesterday. It also gave me chance to check the firmware update for my camera to see if it fixed the overheat indicator issue (it did). All images taken with a 70-200 @ 200mm again. Got a bit of a leaf theme going with this set :)

Butterfly farms

Post by Olympusman »

Nice stuff.
We have these tent village butterfly farms at tourist areas in Pennsylvania and they are a lot of fun.
For the past few years we have had a butterfly bush (my wife's idea) and we are inundated with butterflies all summer long. Also, when mint is flowering in the spring, it is surrounded by bees, moths and butterflies. Apparently the mint scent is very strong, and some lucky beekeeper nearby is going to have mint flavored honey.
