So, we have open fields and lots of weeds/growth behind our house...lucky for us, lots of butterflies live back there! All of the kiddos like to catch them, but Jamison spends hours out there catching them; I would say he is out back a couple hours a day! He is a good catcher, probably catches 5-10 a day. He puts them in the little bug keeper for a while, then plays with them, sometimes he lets them go. It's been fun to research and find out the different types he's catching. His favorite is the Buckeye, they are a medium size butterfly and they are colorful. He will let others pass by him, while waiting for a Buckeye :) He is a pro!!
Jordan caught this a couple weeks ago! We believe this is a Viceroy. It was perfect and just gorgeous!!! We only kept him for a day, we talked Jordan into letting him go. To date, this one is the biggest they have caught.
Gotta teach them young...isn't this so stinkin' cute?!?! He wanted to help, so Greg let him cut some of the weeds behind the house, we like to play out there and catch butterflies!
