    By the way, I enjoyed trying to find out the meaning of the word butterfly but I didn’t come up with any satisfactory answer. That will be a challenge for 2013; to keep searching.

First time here – what a difference from my USA Pacific Northwest, especially at this time of year. But it’s beautiful here, too – just different. I really enjoyed the variety of colors and shapes on the butterflies – especially the 6th and 7th photos – they’re all gems!
