camouflage

Today, my Jennifer and I met Jenn and Olex at the Museum of Science. I had scored some free passes and Jenn really wanted to check out the butterfly garden exhibit that had just opened.
There were quite a few butterflies in the little, humid room - but there were also quite a few people. All in all I preferred the butterfly exhibit at the Franklin Park Conservatory in Columbus - more butterflies and the Chihuly glass. Still, the smallness of this exhibit allowed me to get awfully close to some of the butterflies, even with the large numbers of people. Even my low-res camera was able to catch some pretty detailed shots.
I'm glad this one was spotted for me. I recently read a book called Born to be a Butterfly with my second grade In2Books pen pal, and we learned about how some butterflies can camouflage themselves to look like tree bark. I wish I'd had the photo before I wrote my pen pal letter. I'd have loved to include it for him.
