Friendly Butterfly...obviously a gourmand.
Edited on Wed Nov-30-11 09:01 PM by Solly Mack
This butterfly was hanging out on my oregano plant. It remained on my oregano even after I brought the plant inside. A short while later I let the dogs out and the butterfly flew back out. It was a very friendly bug (would climb on your finger if you placed it near the plant). We were worried that it was injured but it flew off...perhaps it just needed to rest.

It's been a long time since I've seen a butterfly!

4. I just liked him because he was so friendly. (or very, very scared)
We get a lot of those around the house. (gulf fritillary & other butterflies)

I sorta live at the back of beyond.
