Today, my sister and I took a ‘tropical vacation’ to Magic Wings Conservatory, a butterfly facility in South Deerfield MA. For a blissful two hours, we viewed colorful Lepidoptera and flowers, and sat on a bench drinking in the warm, humidly tropical conditions. It was a wonderful escape from the frigid temperatures and snowy conditions we have been experiencing lately. Join me in viewing a slideshow of some the beauties we saw (12 photos).

I love butterfly sanctuaries – so special. We went to one in far north Queensland. How do they maintain it during your cold winters? 🦋
Oh how fabulous, Eliza. Great photos! A perfect respite from the snow. We go to one in LA in the spring and it is so fun when they land on you. I love when they do a butterfly check looking for hitchhikers before you leave.🙂
I love butterflies too! 🦋 looks like a wonderful day Eliza 🧡 🦋
Oh My 🙂
This sounds like a wonderful – and wonderous – place to visit in good company during your icy weather. The butterflies are both interesting and beautiful!
What beauties to behold. I can well imagine it’s a lovely place to spend a few hours in that frigit coldk, ice and snow.
