Lots of Butterflies.

Mob on Miss Ruby!, a photo by Leenechan on Flickr.

The front yard has been mobbed by monarch butterflies for the past few days. This morning I counted four at the same time! They like the asters, the Japanese anemones and, of course, the butterfly bushes. Unfortunately, they don't seem to get along with the bumblebees at all!

I wish this picture weren't so blurry...still, two butterflies on the same flower is pretty cute.
