Beautiful white peacock! That's the butterfly I see most often when I visit my daughter in Florida.

I know what you mean about the rain, we've had a lot of it, haven't we? We just had our second squall, and I call it that, because before it rained today, a cool wind blew, like the ones that blow during late August/September during hurricane season. Spring was colder than normal, and it feels like the tropical weather has come early.

Very nice picture, Marilyn. I think you will be getting a bunch more butterflies soon. September is usually the best month for me here in Central Florida.
