I don’t know about you but Butterflies are my favorite insects. They remind me of fairies and I was always a big fan of them as well.
I was lucky enough to be able to go to “Frederik Meijer Gardens” located in Grand Rapids, Michigan, with one of my best friends recently. Now any time of year is a great time to go to “Frederik Meijer Gardens,” because there is always something going on there. One of their special events they have every year is a butterfly display of exotic butterflies from all around the world. And that was the main reason why my friend and I went.
I was expecting something great, but when we walked into the green house to see hundreds of butterflies floating around, I was taken back. There is no way to describe how amazing and breath taking it was to see everything contained in that room. It was easy to spend hours in there and we did. I hope if you have never been to see the exhibit that someday you will go, because there is no way to describe it to you that you could possibly feel what I did. Some times you just have to go and see for yourself and let the beauty of God’s creation stare you in the face.
And one of the many cool things about the exhibit is you don’t have to be lucky to have one land on you, it is quite common. I even had one that liked my camera very much.
Enjoy your Spring everyone, I know I am!!
