A mountain hike last Friday with my husband Rick included a surprise from Nature.  As we headed up the Tufa Terrace Trail  I noticed movement above us in a Chinaberry Tree. A colorful variety of Butterflies were feasting on the nectar warming in the sun.  A breeze blew gently as American Lady, Red Admiral and Eastern Tiger Swallowtail Butterflies soared between the Leaves and Blossoms.   As we moved further up the mountain we looked up to see a cluster of  Chinaberry Trees.  In the canopy of purple, pink and green was another lovely view of dancing and mating Butterflies.  Sometimes the Universe gives us a gift, a moment of grace and beauty.   We are always thankful to witness Nature’s artistry.

I hope you enjoy the photographs and the video below.

Love to ALL!
