I had a beautiful huge green butterfly with the little brown eye markings on it's wings land on my deck railing the first day I was in my Ky home. He stayed there all day.....when evening came, he disappeared....but the next morning, he was back on my family room window. I went outside to look closer & he/she flew down onto the backyard grass. Just as he landed, a bird landed next to him. It took me a second to realize the bird was eying the butterfly. I ran like a crazy woman down the steps of my deck into the yard flinging my arms & yelling at the bird to leave my butterfly alone.

Luckily, I distracted the bird & the butterfly flew off into my woods hopefully to freedom & not into the beak of another bird. I never did see the butterfly after that day & I've never seen another one like it ever. I will post the photo in my gallery for anyone to look at.

Butterflys are free & very very beautiful....I love the colours of the monarchs.....but this green one was something I have never seen before.
