Butterflies at Fermi-Lab
purplish copper
recent butterfly sightings
~I haven't been to Fermi Lab this year but I thought its as-good-a-time-as-any to enjoy these beautiful photographs and the incongruity of high energy physics and fragile flying insects.
I beginning to appreciate having the time and wherewithal to spot natural phenomena like butterflies. (Remember: It's not a competition, so no wagering.) It's not an everyday thing. I generally have to set aside a time and go find a place where I can play at paying attention to "needless" living things. "Needful things" occupy most of my attention in a different way.
