I've been wanting to write about the Monarch butterfly's that pass through the NSA Farm property every year....the Asclepia tuberosa also know as 'butterfly milkweed' that is pervasive and blooming this time of the year is the a favorite food of the Monarch... and while at the kitchen window, looking out on to the kitchen pond area and the asclepia in bloom there, there it was! The biggest most beautiful Monarch having a snack on the asclepia blossoms! i ran to get my camera and managed to snap off a few (lousy) pictures .... some times it all falls into place and other times...well this is the other time! hope that another opportunity is forth coming and I can up date you with a better shot! Untill then...I hope you enjoy these....
