The Butterflies

Not in the habit of taking lots of pictures in stores but today I couldn't resist the butterflies at the garden center. They were every where. Bees were also enjoying the blooms. How beautiful. Soon to be gone until spring. At least in my region.

Possibly a monarch getting nectar to store up energy for it's flight to migrate to warmer regions for the winter.

The variety of Echinacea  were also beautiful at Home Depot today. I like to go at this time of year because soon everything green will be gone also. From now until everything in the outdoor greenhouse is sold, it's the time to get good bargains on shrubs, trees, and perennials. There's still plenty of time to get them planted while they get established before frost.
