Extra! Extra! | White Peacock Butterfly   The Peacock butterflies are common in southern Texas and Florida.  They are found near ponds or streams in fields or parks as well as roadside ditches.  Their wing span measures 2 – 2 3/4 inches.  For more butterfly images, also see Peck Butterfly House | a 7 Image Story.

The Back Story   The Peck Butterfly House offers the opportunity to get very close to a number of beautiful butterflies. Time and patience are required to focus even though the butterflies are plentiful.    Note: I post an image everyday at hankconrad.com.
