Nature Shots

Here are some more pictures from Buttermilk Falls State Park. There are so many trails to hike there - you can get a serious workout! And it's so beautiful!



Milkweed - I think they have one of the coolest flowers - this is the only plant that Monarch Butterflies eat. The milk in the leaves are toxic and when the caterpillars eat the leaves, they become poisonous. There are actually butterflies who imitate the coloring of Monarchs so that they have a better chance of not being eaten.
