The saw the most amazing thing today as I was driving home from the island! Coming over the Causeway I was admiring the beauty of the day, white puffy clouds in an intense blue sky, the breeze gently blowing the palms, the inlet waters were several shades of blue, dazzling sunlight.
Veined White Butterfly |
Just as I came to a stop at the traffic light there was a sudden swarm of white butterflies crossing the lanes of traffic. It was a huge swarm...I've never seen anything like it, delicate white wings fluttering and swooping, weaving this way and that. I wondered if anyone else notice this phenomenon. All the way home I notice there were white butterflies everywhere I looked, fluttering here and there. It was the strangest thing, yet one of the most beautiful amazing moments. As soon as I got in the door, I ran for the studio to try and capture the moment in my journal.
A large group of butterflies is called a lek, swarm, rabble |
Kinda wish I had planned the journaling to meander through the butterflies but that thought didn't occur to me until later in the process. Well, maybe next time.
Keeping your eyes open, look for the unexpected and be prepared to capture the moment! Have fun!
Happy Journaling!
