Exotic Butterflies

We visited a butterfly exhibit early in the morning last week when the temperatures were in the high 80's by 10 am.

I got several photos of Blue Morpho's, one of my favorites. Blue morphos rarely stay still long enough to obtain a good photo. They are irridescent blue, but when they close their wings, they are spotted brown, hiding their glorious color.

FYI-moths are more nocturnal than butterflies and rest with their wings open
