Yesterday we went to Canada again and visited the Butterfly Conservatory I have been to several butterfly exhibits and this was by far the most impressive. We spent three hours there without even realizing the time. If you sat still for a few minutes, the butterflies were quite happy to land on you. Joe's bright green shirt and white hat and tendency to sit for longer periods of time made him quite popular with the butterflies.

Banded Peacock (Burma to Malaysia, Sumatra and Philippeans)
Blue Cracker (Southern USA to Brazil) Great camouflage.
Blue Morpho (Nicaragua to Equador)
Malachite (Southern USA to Amazon Basin) and Julia (Southern and Central America, southern USA) in the background
I think that's a Common Morpho on her knee. She was not impressed!

Whirlpool Aero Car - High above the racing Niagara River, you'll be transported through the air in an antique cable car. Far below, the torrent of water abruptly changes direction and creates one of the world’s most mesmerizing natural phenomenon – the Niagara Whirlpool.
