I'm trying to think of a rhyme for 'fritillary' but all I come up with is you-know-who... (I gag on even the mention of her name. lol). Beautifully penned, Sara. Peace and Serenity, Gershon

Gershon, It is not pronounced like you would think. Frit-er-lary..Somewhat like that ..So it would not rhyme with the H word. Thanks for stopping by. Sara

Nicely succinct, Sara, and two words I do not even really know!!

SS, They say on the internet that butterflies start to produce a chemical like antifreeze which keeps them safe during the winter except for those that migrate to stay safe. Isn't it amazing. I don't know what they eat in winter or if they do though. Sara
