September Butterflies

All week my back has been bothering me but today I needed a little walk and some time away from home. I went to Lake Erie Metro Park. I spotted 5 different butterflies as I was strolling along. I am no butterfly expert so I had to get out my butterfly book to identify these pictured. The butterfly above is a Painted Lady and I saw it on the nature trail. The others I saw along the edge of the marsh among the ragweed and other wildflowers. Below is the common Cabbage White, next, the Buckeye and last is the Silver Spotted Skipper. What a gorgeous day and how beautiful is nature.
