Butterfly Seekers

Yesterday, we walked over to the Sunken Gardens with my camera in hand. I really wanted to try to take some pictures of the amazing flowers that I had seen there a couple of weeks ago and look for butterflies. We walked over to my favorite spot and found these beautiful creatures. Some were in full bloom and a few were getting ready to blossom. I took lots of photos as "Little Bit" wanted to go out and look for the butterflies.

I took a few more pictures of these amazing flowers while she pleaded with me to look for the butterflies.

And then she saw one! 

They were flying all around. She was so excited.  We tried so hard to catch a picture of one of the beautiful ones as they whipped past us, but they kept flying high above us to the beautiful bouganvillia's. So I decided to try to get a picture of them up high.

 After trying to catch a picture of the butterflies we walked around the rest of the Gardens and found some amazing flowers and beautiful ferns. The Gardens are so peaceful and calming. We could have spent hours there. It is an inspiring place.
