 It has been a weird Spring, very cool, we are still having 40s and 50s in the mornings, and fairly rainy.  I am finally seeing some more butterflies around.  Hope to see more.  This was one that was visiting my Milkweed that I planted for Monarchs.  This is a Mourning Cloak butterfly.  Apparently it is name due to someone wearing a bright dress under their dark one and letting a bit of it show while in mourning.  Adult butterflies hibernate over the winter and are usually one of the first to emerge in Spring.
