Description

At the Dunwoody Nature Center Butterfly Festival, there were tents of butterflies. You had to pay for an assigned tent and it was really bedlam. In my tent, the butterflies were mostly monarchs and swallowtail. The swallowtail were smart enough to stay on the ceiling of the tent. I have no idea what species were in the other tents. They only allowed you 5 minutes in and out of the tent. There were so many toddlers and children attempting to capture the butterflies, because the attendants gave out sponge sticks with sugar on them to attract the butterfly. It was not the perfect setting for getting a professional photo, but I did my best. I took this photo on August 17, 2019, Dunwoody, GA (USA).
