The king of Lepidoptera

After several years of putting up with our wild (i.e. not intentionally planted) milkweed patch, I finally saw a Monarch butterfly flitting about them yesterday! And just in time too, since I had made up my mind a day earlier to pull out the milkweed so the day-lilies became visible again...


The butterfly spent some quality time in the milkweed and butterfly bushes. I wanted to stay longer and watch the show, but had to back up the car and get to work...
