My Honeycomb butterfly bush is just covered with butterflies and other flying critters.

Nice shots!! I got a honeycomb BB from a trade a couple years ago, and this year that thing is really huge! Thanks for sharing!!

Yep the bb gets really big! I lost my first one last winter, so I went out and found 2 more to replace it LOL.
The butterflies and hummingbirds just go wild over mine.

Sometimes I'm happy with the way the pictures turn out amazed, but happy

Annie, that second pic IS a butterfly also. One of the many skippers. The best way to tell the difference is the antennas. A butterfly's are thin, wiry looking. A moth's have a feather look to them.
