Beautiful Orange Sulfur Butterfly At Fort Hill On Cape Cod.

It’s amazing that there are still butterflies flitting around going from flower to flower like it is still summertime. (Click on blog link for other photo.)

We saw this beautiful Orange Sulphur butterfly and this Cabbage White (2nd photo) just this week on the trail at Fort Hill.

Have you seen any butterflies lately?  Just amazing that there are still butterflies and still lots of wildflowers blooming!

 

Twin Little Copper Butterflies On The Doane Rock Trail On Cape Cod.

I was so surprised to see not one, but two of these beautiful Little Copper butterflies on the trail by Coast Guard Beach. I hadn’t seen very many butterflies this past summer and was surprised they were still around. (Click on blog link for other photo.)

Little Copper butterflies are very small with a wing span of only about an inch. Have you ever seen one? Beautiful little butterfly, don’t you think?

The Butterfly And Hummingbird Garden At The Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary On Cape Cod.

The Butterfly and Hummingbird Garden at the Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary is just gorgeous this year. They have done a beautiful job creating a flower garden with walking paths so that people can really enjoy the natural environment. (Click on blog link for other photos.)

There are so many different varieties of flowers that bloom at all different times of the summer.

What a wonderful place to explore and enjoy!

Gorgeous Red Admiral Butterfly In Our Yard On Cape Cod.

I kept seeing this butterfly flitting around and it finally landed on the paver stone by the garden full of Zinnias. He posed there for quite a while before he flew away.

And then in the evening, I saw it again out in our yard resting on a dead leaf on the ground. Not the perfect photo op, but truly a beautiful butterfly!
