I was walking around the back yard when I noticed this butterfly just sitting on the lawn. It must have been blown out of a tree and by the looks of it just recently sprouted it wings. So I got my camera and took a few closeups and it certainly wasn't camera shy. Seemed a little freaked out I was so close to it but stayed professional despite gusting Victoria winds.
The rest of the garden is doing well with just about everything showing some new growth, especially my container potatoes. Today I am attempting to sew some marigold and spinach seeds in some trays, and yesterday I planted the ends of 2 green onions that Maria gave me. She says her parents plant them all the time so we shall see. And as I am typing this Tony just handed me a package of Scarlet Runner beans to throw in the garden. That should just about fill it up for now.
