Year 7 – Week 21 – Day 1

We didn’t get enough bugs on Sunday, so we decided to try Butterfly Wonderland. Going right when they open on a weekday was the key. For about 15 minutes, we had the place to ourselves.

The discovered the koi pond

The koi were very “talkative”

This is how we like it! No people!

We learned the koi were so friendly because they were begging. An employee came around and gave the boys a handful of koi-chow.

Bubbles of thanks

It made Trevor’s day when he found a potato bug on the sidewalk and he was able to rescue it

The have more than butterflies on display

Silly grasshoppers

There is a nice large reptile and amphibian exhibit that was added since we visited the last time.

We had to do another round through the butterfly atrium.

Trevor looked right as the one on Brendan’s shoulder flew off

Butter hat!

Cuties!

The very serious caterpillar

Trevor found a hat to match his shirt!

We ended up getting the annual pass for the butterflies. It will be nice to go back a lot during cooler weather.
