Owl Butterfly


Not only does the owl butterfly look like an owl, but it also has a snake on it.




OK, so I lied about this being just butterflies.
This is a large millipede which was pretty common and pretty?


Leaf cutters - hard at work
We saw lots of these guys which were following well defined trails through the rain forests.


Monarch Butterfly Chrysalis
This beautiful jeweled crysalis from the monarch butterly, which is common in New Jersey.


This beautiful  Lobster Claw flower didn't fit in anywhere on the site, but I wanted to have it here.
