| I went to the Sertoma Butterfly House in Sioux Falls, South Dakota last weekend, it was so much fun. There were lots and lots of butterflies fluttering around, I took around 500 photos! I would like to share a few of them.

| I think the first one is a variable cracker - like me? :) - and there are a lot of longwings/Heliconians, like in all butterfly houses. Anybody know what that gorgeous third one is? Sherry |

| It's great that there is a butterfly house in South Dakota. Here in Portland, with a metro population twice that of SD, we only get a two-week exhibit at the local zoo. |

| Thank you for the nice comments, I would love to share more. I went to the Portland one,years ago. I just happen to visiting my son when it was there. |
