On my visit to DeKorte Park on Wednesday, I checked out an array of butterflies, including a camera-shy Monarch, lots of skippers and a Gilligan, and these two cool Swallowtails on Coneflowers.

Butterfly Day at DeKorte Park is only eight days away.

Bergen County Audubon's Don Torino and I created the event way back in 2010. So glad it is going strong! This is the eighth annual.
