Monday, I was out in the yard. I looked down and saw a "glob" of butterflies. I wondered what was up with that. So then I noticed they were on a banana!! Apparantely one of the grandkids had thrown one down over the weekend. So I had some old bananas in the house, and tried an experiment. Threw them out in the yard, and sure enough, here came the butterflies. Here is a picture from the other day. Funny thing, there are even more on them today. As they are getting older, they seem to like them better. I love this though, would have never thought of it. It is really attracting the butterflies.   |

LOL, I had to think a minute on the E D B D part. Sounds like a fun game.
That is really interesting about the bananas and the butterflies! I would love to try it, but my newest dog gobbles up every banana he can as fast as he can get to one!
