An extra five minutes

I took an extra five minutes this morning
when I went to the library.



Just five minutes to walk around and look at the
plantings around the side of the building.

A Common Wood Nymph also came to look about.

I saw my first Common Wood Nymph yesterday.
Today I am reading about this resident butterfly.
There is one brood with females laying eggs in late summer.
The caterpillars over winter in my area.
My butterfly book says the females can live into early October.
