Cape May Butterflies - Farewell to Thee!


This is a farewell of a different type and a more up-beat one! When I was visiting Cape May two weeks ago, I was there at the precise time to view the migration of the monarch butterflies along the coast, on their way to Mexico. I took this photo of a few that I saw on this abundant yellow flower......I can't remember the flower's name.....do you know? It was truly fascinating to see so many at one time!
I'm ready to work on more butterflies!
