If you want to see a variety of butterflies, the Butterfly Conservatory in Niagara Falls, Ontario, is well worth visiting. When you first walk in, the number of butterflies is almost overwhelming. Most days they have about 2000 butterflies flying around. There are about 45 species, most of them coming from South America, so lots of butterflies that I have never seen here in Ontario.
The day we were there it was very cold outside, but sunny, and they said that more were out flying around enjoying the heat from the sun. It was difficult to know which ones to take pictures of, and you have to be patient while you wait for them to settle. Sometimes they settle on people, and several times they landed on my hand or on my camera.
Most butterflies rest with their wings closed, so you have to wait until they are open if you want a picture of them at their best. There are a lot more butterfly pictures than I am putting in this post, so I’ll put some more up next week.
I don’t know the names of all of these butterflies, but God knows every kind, and He knows you and me.
He (God) who lives forever and ever,
is the One who created heaven and earth and sea
and everything in them.
Revelation 10:6
