There is nothing in a caterpillar that tells you it’s going to be a butterfly.  Richard Buckminster Fuller

 
Happiness is a butterfly, which when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you. Nathaniel Hawthorne

 
The mark of your ignorance is the depth of your belief in injustice and tragedy. What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the Master calls the butterfly. Richard Bach

    The butterfly counts not months but moments, and has time enough

    The Hawthorne quote is right on the money re the happiness of successfully capturing a butterfly on camera. You have to lie still and be very patient for it to land where you want and capture it in its glory. Trust me to see all things photographically :)

    But egm, that’s the best way to see things ’cause you’re looking with purpose vs. looking blankly :)

    Hi Kaasa.
    I’ll be back with the austral spring. Metamorphosis takes a bit of time, not to mention energy :)

    It’s almost November. Are you coming back? :-)

    I add to the chorus… when are you coming back? Hasn’t spring sprung?
