I am sharing lots of butterfly images. In August I was seeing so many butterflies, way more than last year. Wildlife sightings around our yard were the white-tailed deer and lots bunny sightings.
1. August 1, while washing dishes at my kitchen sink looking out the window I see a mama deer with her fawn.
2. Aug 2nd, Eastern Tiger Swallowtail butterfly, the Monarch Butterfly and a sweet bunny.
3. This baby bunny hangs out under our blueberry bushes. Adorable, I hope it stays safe!
4. Aug 3rd, I sat on our deck watching for birds and butterflies. I saw lots of butterflies around the buddleia bush.
5. Below is the pretty Eastern Tiger Swallowtailed butterfly.
"Butterflies are not insects, they are self-propelled flowers."
6. I seem to see more of the Black Swallowtail butterflies.
7. Aug 3rd, Miney was funny one day, there were so many butterflies flying around she was barking at them.
"If you smile when you see a butterfly, you have happiness in your soul."
8. Flashback to a 2017 Florida bird, the Snail Kite. We has some great views of this bird at the Circle B Preserve in Lakeland Florida. This sighting of the Snail Kite was a new life bird for me.
The female Snail Kite has the whitish feathers around the face. Juveniles are brown above and streaked brown and buff below, a buffy throat and eyebrow.
Another Florida 2017 lifer was the Swallow-tailed Kite. Not the best photo but at I least I could record my lifer.

Hi Eileen,
This is a beautiful series of photos.
How lovely that you saw the deer and its fawn from your kitchen.
I love the Eastern Tiger Swallowtail butterfly and the Monarch butterfly.
The Snail Kite is a beautiful species that I've never seen before.

What glorious flutteries you have in your yard... I've really struggled to spot butterflies where I am this year, but when I did, the heart was lifted! Happy weekend. YAM xx
