Butterfly Feast
The past few days I have been going out during lunch or a little after lunch and taking some photos or some quick videos to post onto Flickr. I took this video of the butterfly yesterday and posted a version on Flickr. The version here has all of the footage I took of the butterfly. I think when I post videos to Flickr I am also going to make a version for Andy Not Andrew. That way there is a version you can download at much higher quality, although, the quality that comes out of my camera isn’t the best. Anyways, I digress. Here is the video. Enjoy.
Music in this video is "Just Another Lie" by Tomas PhUsIoN

Stephen - I was really shocked as well. I thought as soon as I put my camera closer it will fly off but thankfully it didn’t. It would fly off if I got TOO close and I’d have to find it again. So I kept a decent distance from it and it didn’t seem to mind.

Apparently, I had the same thought as everyone else - I’m amazed at how close you got. Nice job, Andy.

Shawno - Maybe it was just really hungry and wanted to feast before the crowd arrived. Kind of like me at a buffet!
