The Autumn Joy Is Blooming

Autumn always makes viewing bug behavior way too easy at our house. We have three incredibly large Autumn Joy plants (really bushes) that attract every type of insect you can imagine, and they are just beginning to open their large heads full of tiny blooms. Right now, there are constantly butterflies in the yard, but the Autumn Joy is attracting some new ones. Our main blog picture above, is a butterfly Grace spotted while doing the Slip n' Slide today. She remarked that it was new to the yard, and the light was just perfect for a photo.

I really like the name of this butterfly, "American Lady".
